When a solid is cut by a plane which is inclined to the axis of solid and the portion of solid above the plane is removed, the remaining portion of solid is known as `Truncated solid'.

Isometric lines which are parallel to the isometric axes are directly drawn by measuring the dimensions.
Useful Points to Note
Subject and UNIT: Engineering Graphics: Unit V (a): Isometric Projection
It was explained earlier that when an object is tilted at a particular angle with respect to the vertical art plane and observed from front, its dimensions will be observed lesser than the actual dimensions.
