From the Point A, let fall the Perpendicular
A B upon the Baſe Line; and from the Point of
Concurrence B, draw the Line B V to the Point
of Sight; then aſſume B E in the Baſe Line
equal to B A, and from the Point E draw the
Line E D to the Point of Diſtance D: And the
Point (a), the Interſection of B V and E D, is
the Repreſentation ſought.

The Appearance of the Line A B, is a Part
of the Line B V.
Now, if we conceive a Line

another from the Point A towards the Point E;
theſe two Lines will be parallel, becauſe they
are in parallel Planes, aud each make half a
right Angle with the Perſpective Plane;
