TECHNICAL DRAWING

1.- What angles can you draw using a 45 triangular set square? And with a 60 triangular set square?

45=90,135

60=120,150,90

2.- Divide a 77 mm segment into two equal parts, using your compass.

AB= 77 cm

Bisector

3.- Draw a straight line r and any point A on it. Starting at point A, draw a 72 angle off the line using a protractor.

4.- A straight line can create a sense of volume. On a sheet of paper, draw a composition showing this effect.

5.- Look for a picture painted by Josef Albers which he uses only black and red straight lines, and for the picture named "Homage To The Square: Glow" painted in 1966 by the same author. In which one does the painter create a sense of depth?
