The circle in an axonometry represents an ellipse. It is possible to construct it by means of parallel projection of a circle of the set radius on the plane.

It is required to you

Instruction

1. To draw an ellipse in an axonometry, at first it is necessary to construct ABCD parallelogram. In the turned-out parallelogram it is necessary to carry out diagonals. For this purpose connect points of A and C, B and D. Receive diagonals of AC and BD. Designate a point of their crossing by letter O.

2. Note the middle of the parties of a parallelogram points 1, 3, 5, 7. You can just halve lengths of the parties and note the middle. Or you can apply a ruler to the party of a parallelogram of AB and its message parallel to AB before crossing with O. Ostanovite's point a ruler and note on sides of a parallelogram of AD and BC of a point 1 and 5. Then repeat the same procedure and note the middle of the top and bottom side of a parallelogram points 3 and 7.

3. On a piece 3B construct down an isosceles rectangular triangle of 3KB where 3B is a triangle hypotenuse. By means of a protractor measure a corner in 45 ° about a point 3 down and to the right. Then note 45 ° from B point down and to the left. Draw straight lines on noted corners. A point of their crossing - top of a right angle of K.

4. Take compasses and carry out a semi-circle from a point 3 with a radius of 3K before crossing with the party of a parallelogram of AB. Points of intersection designate L and M. These points divide a piece 3A and equal to it 3B concerning 3:7. If you have no compasses, try to divide half of the party of AB in the ratio 3:7 by means of a ruler, but it reduces construction accuracy.

5. Draw through points L and M straight lines parallel to sides of AD and BC before crossing with parallelogram diagonals. Note points 2, 4, 6, 8.

6. Construct in points the 2 and 6 tangents of t ₂ and t ₆ parallel diagonals of BD and in points the 4 and 8 tangents of t ₄ and t ₈ parallel diagonals of AC. They will be tangents to an ellipse in points 2, 4, 6 and 8.

7. At you it turned out to construct 8 points of an ellipse 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8 and as much tangents to an ellipse of AD, t ₂, AB, t ₄, BC, t ₆, CD and t ₈. Now you can with a sufficient accuracy draw in a parallelogram an ellipse. At first draw a weak contour, then circle an ellipse with the thick line.
