Question 1

In one-point perspective, where do all receding parallel lines appear to meet?

Two-point perspective suits objects viewed at an angle, like a building's corner.

Question 4

The diagonal lines that recede toward a vanishing point are called:

Accepted Answer

Orthogonal lines

Answer

Orthogonals are the convergence lines leading to a vanishing point.

Question 5
