el of the surface. Theactual slope of such a plane, with respect to H, may be shownby passing a cutting plane, Z, perpendicular to the lines oflevel. This plane intersects X in the line 0%. Now let Z berotated into H, on ZZ* as an axis. The point a is in the axisof rotation, and does not move, but… … Fio. 246 X cut by any other vertical plane, as Y, can be found in thesame way. The line M^ shows such a section, rotated into H.The angle <^ is the angle between the line c<? and H. lines of level may be Hsed also to describe planes intersectingin various ways, as shown by the roof plan in…
