The essentials of descriptive geometry . SURFACES 89 on a plane surface so that all the elements will coincide with theplane. In Fig. 73 is shown a cone lying in a plane so that theelement OX coincides with plane.

The result, oxx, is called a development of the only developable surfaces are the single curved surfaces as. Fig. 73. these obviously are the only surfaces whose elements may bemade to lie in a plane without changing their relation to eachother. In practice, however, a number of warped and doublecurved surfaces are considered developable; this is made possibleby approximate methods of development which give patternswhich conform closely enough to the original surface for practicalpurposes. The bottoms of hemispherical water tanks are goodexamples of this fact. CLASSIFICATION OF SURFACES {PrismsPyramidsPolyhedrons Surfaces areeither Ruled.
