Abstract
In 1799, a French scientist, mathematician and engineer Gaspard Monge (1746–1818) developed a rational method for the formation of a drawing. The basic idea of this method consists in the application of parallel rectangular (orthogonal) projections of an object on three mutually perpendicular planes [1–5].
