A cube (40 mm) is resting on ground and all vertical faces are equally inclined to the vertical plane. A sectional plane, inclined to horizontal plane and perpendicular to the vertical plane is cutting the cube to get a regular hexagonal cutting shape (true shape) on cube. Find the angle of the cutting plane to the horizontal and draw the projections of cube (front view and sectional top view). Develop the true shape of the cutting surface.

Question

A cube (40 mm) is resting on ground and all vertical faces are equally inclined to the vertical
plane. A sectional plane, inclined to horizontal plane and perpendicular to the vertical plane is
cutting the cube to get a regular hexagonal cutting shape (true shape) on cube. Find the angle of
the cutting plane to the horizontal and draw the projections of cube (front view and sectional top
view). Develop the true shape of the cutting surface.
