Place the tin on the table before you, abouttwo feet away, and about the length of a lead pencil below theeye. Place on the tin a small block or box similar to Fig. 1and observe : 1. That the reflection is like the box, but inverted. 2. That the reflection is the same size as the box. 6. That the length of the edges A B, D E, and G H are thesame length as their reflections, B C, E F, and H I. 4. Observe that the receding lines of the reflectio

That the length of the edges A B, D E, and G H are thesame length as their reflections, B C, E F, and H I. 4. Observe that the receding lines of the reflection are paral-lel to and obey the same law as the receding lines of the box. Make a model out of a strip of drawing paper, about 1x9inches long, similar to Fig. 2. Place this model on the tin asin Fio;. 2 and observe : 1. That the vertical lines marked 1, 1, 1, 1, are continued inthe reflection, and are of the same length. 2. That the set of lines marked 2 in both object and reflec-tion are parallel. 152 AUGSBURGS DRAWING. 153. 3. That the set of lines marked 3 in both object and reflec-tion are parallel. Note.—O^ course it is understood that all parallel receding lines converge andif continued would come together at a point. Place a small cylinder on the tin and observe :In Fig. 3 that the longer axis is not Fig. 4 that the top of the cylinder can be seen, but that itdoes not show in the reflection.
