Fig. 147. 70 DESCRIPTIVE GEOMETRY 102. A Surface of Revolution, Fig. 149, istlie locus of any line, or generatrix, the posi-tion of which remains unaltered with referenceto a fixed right line about which it fixed right line is called the axis of revo-lution. A circle of the surface generated byany point of the generatrix is called d parallel.,and planes perpendicular to the axis will cutthe surface in parallels. Any plane contain-ing the axis of revolution is called a merid-ian plane^ and the line cut from the surfaceby this plane is called a meridian line. Allmeridian lines of the same surface are obvi-ously identical, and any one of them may beconsidered as a generatrix. That meridianplane which is parallel to a coordinate planeis called the principal meridian. If the generatrix be a right line lying inthe same plane as the axis, it will either beparallel with it or intersect it ; in the formercase the surface generated will be a cylinder,in the
