Course detail

Selected Chapters from Constructive Geometry

FSI-0KD Acad. year: 2023/2024 Winter semester

The course familiarises students with the fundamentals of three-dimensional descriptive geometry, theory of engineering drawing and graphical method of solving space or solid analytic geometry problems. Presentation of these concepts will enable students
to understand descriptive geometry who will be able to relate it to engineering and technology.
