KEOTANGLB. To describe a Pattern for a Tapering Article, theTop and Base to he a Rectangle, to he in TwoSections. Erect the perpendicular line FE, fig. 34 ; draw the line AB atright angle to FE; make FE equal to the slant height of thearticle, and draw the line CD parallel to AB; make AB equal inlength to the longest side of the base; make CD equal in lengthto the longest side of the top; draw the lines AC and BD ; makeGH equal in length to the shortest side of the base; make JI equalin length to the shortest side of the top; draw the line HI, also,erect the line KI parallel to FE, C and D as centres, with the radiiHK; desciibe the arcs M and L; draw the right angle lines LBO,and MAN; set off BO and AN equal in length to EH, and drawthe lines OR and NP at right angles to OB and NA; also, thelines RD and PC at right angles to RO and IN.
