The .ff-trace of any plane which is parallel to B must beparallel to Bh (§ 104). Hence, find the traces of A. DrawHQ through sx parallel to Bh; draw VQ through tx and thepoint in which HQ intersects GL. Special Case II. Suppose that either the first or the secondgiven line is a profile line. The general solution will apply tothis case ; but if the problem be solved in this manner, a profileprojection will be necessary. A simple construction, by whichthe use of a profile projection may be avoided, is as follows : Let ab and C, Fig. 145, be the given lines. Through onepoint of the profile line, as a, draw an auxiliary line D parallelto the line C; through the other point, b, of ab, draw a second
