If the plane withpoint h thereon be revolved into H about HNas an axis, the point will move in a plane per-pendicular to ffiV, and will lie somewhere inh%. Its position in this line must be deter-mined by finding the true distance of the pointfrom HN^. This distance will equal the hy-potenuse of a right triangle of which h^d^the horizontal projection of the hypotenuse,is one leg, and h^c^ the distance of the poin
