Calques 3D - Examples
Here are some examples of interesting constructions or problems which highlight the features and potential of Calques 3D. If your have constructed figures that you want to share, please send them to me.
Sections of Volumes
Intersection cube - plane
This example illustrates how to build the intersection of a cube and a plane and how to take care of ALL the possible configurations of the construction.
Section of a cube
Take a cube by one of its corner and drop it in the water. What is the nature of the plane section such defined?
Intersection pyramid - plane
What is the intersection of a pyramid and a plane perpendicular to its height?
