INFERENCE FROM POSITION 1 THROUGH 8 :
A. shadow of a line that is perpendicular to
floor (i.e. standing upright on floor) is a
45` 1nc11ned 11ne on f1oo, 1.e. 1n p1an, buf
perpendicular line on wall, i.e., in elevation
depending on how far from the wall and the
floor that line is positioned (positions 1 &
2),
B. a line that is parallel to floor and
perpendicular to wall, drops a shadow that is
a pepend1cu1a 11ne 1n p1an, buf a 45` 11ne
in elevation depending on how far from the
wall and the floor that line is positioned
(positions 3,4,5,6)
C. a line that is parallel to both floor and
wall, drops a shadow that is a parallel line
with respect to both wall and floor, depending
on how far from the wall and the floor that
line is positioned (positions 7,8)
