Drawing polyhedra


This task has three parts:
1- In the classroom, you are going to do some sketches from several wooden models. 




2- You also will draw different bottles and boxes related to polyhedric shapes present in the classroom. Little by little, you have to understand firstly the general structure adjusting sizes, proportions, volumen.. Finally, draw shades and shadows to obtain a better effect of reality.





 3- HOMEWORK- Choose things at home that it would be avaliable in order to create a composition, using prism-shaped, cylinder shaped , cone-shaped, pyramid-shaped, sphere-shaped, cube-shaped etc..

NETS OF POLYHEDRA

Net (polyhedron)

The eleven nets of a cube
In geometry a net of a polyhedron is an arrangement of edge-joined polygons in the plane which can be folded (along edges) to become the faces of the polyhedron. Polyhedral nets are a useful aid to the study of polyhedra and solid geometry in general, as they allow for physical models of polyhedra to be constructed from material such as thin cardboard.[1]
An early instance of polyhedral nets appears in the works of Albrecht Dürer, whose 1525 book Unterweysung der Messung mit dem Zyrkel und Rychtscheyd included nets for the Platonic solids and several of the Archimedean solids.[2]

Polyhedra in Perspective

CAVALIERE PERSPECTIVE:  THE PRISM



DIFFERENT POSITIONS OF PRISM
Extracted from Gonzalo Mori´s book: Ejercicios para Selectividad-Dibujo Técnico, Universidad de Oviedo


CYLINDER   (Cavaliere Perspective)

First, draw diagonals.
                       Divide each half part of square into three parts,
 Draw a parallel line to y by the first part.
Join the points obtained
CYLINDER (Isometric system)
Exactly the same but, in this case, you have to use the drawing compass.

Quadrilaterals

Types of Quadrilaterals

There are six basic types of quadrilaterals:
1.  Rectangle
Opposite sides of a rectangle are parallel and equal.  All angles are 90º.

2.  Square
Opposite sides of a square are parallel and all sides are equal.  All angles are 90º.


3.  Parallelogram
Opposite sides of a parallelogram are parallel and equal.  Opposite angles are equal.


4.  Rhombus
All sides of a rhombus are equal and opposite sides are parallel.  Opposite angles of a rhombus are equal.  The diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other at right angles.



 

5.  Trapezium
trapezium has one pair of opposite sides parallel.  A regular trapezium has non-parallel sides equal and its base angles are equal, as shown in the following diagram.

6.  Kite
Two pairs of adjacent sides of a kite are equal, and one pair of opposite angles are equal.   Diagonals intersect at right angles.  One diagonal is bisected by the other.

4.  Rhombus
All sides of a rhombus are equal and opposite sides are parallel.  Opposite angles of a rhombus are equal.  The diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other at right angles.
