               3.5     Isometric Drawing


                       In an isometric drawing the three mutually perpendicular edges of a cube are at an angle

                       of 120° with each other. Instead of drawing the edges as mentioned above, first we can
                       also start from point `a'. At this point also three mutually perpendicular edges met while

                       two of these edges make 30° to horizontal, the other edge is vertical. After drawing two

                       30° lines and one vertical line, parallel lines are drawn to complete cube.
