Learning outcomes of the course unit

The students should be able to construct ellipse by focus properties, the principles of perspective affinity, perspective collineation. They will get the basics of projection: coted projection, orthogonal axonometry, basic problems and be able to solve simple 3D problems, display simple geometric solids and surfaces in each type of projection.

Prerequisites

Basic knowledge of planar and 3D geometry as taught at secondary schools and basic skills of work with a ruler and pair of compasses.

Co-requisites

Not applicable.

Aims

Students should be able to construct: Euclidean constructions in plane, identical and similarity transforms in plane, ellipse by focus properties, understand the principles of perspective affinity, perspective collineation, using such properties in solving problems, understand and get the basics of projection: Monge`s, orthogonal axonometry. They should develop 3D visualization and be able to solve simple 3D problems, display simple geometric solids and surfaces in each type of projection.
