SET SQUARE AND DEFINITION OF SKETCH/OUTLINE


TOOLS FOR DRAWING LINES

RULER

We use the ruler to measure the length of a segment. The markings on a ruler show centimeters (a long line) and millimeters (a short line).
PROTRACTOR


We use a protractor to measure and draw angles. It´s usually a semicircle with markings to show 0º to 180º.

SET SQUARE
Set squares are triangular “rulers” for drawing parallel and perpendicular lines.
-          A right-angles isosceles triangle (escuadra) with 45º, 45º and 90º angles.
-          A right-angled scalene triangle (cartabón) with 90º, 30º and 60º angles.
2   COMPASS
This instrument is used to draw circules and arcs, and to copy segments.

EXERCISES

Draw the following angles using the set square: 30º, 60º, 90º, 105º, 120º, 135º, 150º y 180º.

Make a pattern with circles, following these instructions:
a. Draw a straight line 15 cm long.
b. Divide into 3 segments.
c. Use each mark as the centre of a circle with 2 cm radius.
d. Draw other circles inside with 1,5 cm radius.
e. Colour the pattern.

SKETCH AND OUTLINE

Sketch in an initial drawing which shows the fundamental elements of a design and reflects its main concept.

The outline gives more specific information, including measurements, materials, ways of connecting the pieces, etc.
