Sketch in the correct missing lines in the orthographic projection drawings.

To complete the orthographic projections, add the missing solid or dashed lines in each 2D view to represent all visible and hidden edges as seen from each direction, using the 3D isometric drawing as your guide.
To accurately sketch the missing lines in each orthographic projection:
Always use solid lines for visible edges and dashed lines for hidden ones. Carefully compare each view to the 3D drawing to ensure accuracy.
Orthographic projection is a method of representing three-dimensional objects in two dimensions. It involves projecting the views of the object onto planes perpendicular to one another, typically the front, top, and side views. These views help convey all the necessary details of an object, especially its shape and features.
To sketch the correct missing lines in orthographic projection drawings, follow these steps:
Identify Views: Determine which views are given and which features are already present. Typically, you will have the front, top, and right-side views. Each view will show different information based on its orientation.
Project Features: Using the provided views, project lines vertically and horizontally to locate the corresponding features on each view. For example, features visible in the front view should be projected across to the side view.
Hidden Lines: Where appropriate, add hidden lines to represent features that are not directly visible from a specific view. These are usually shown as dashed lines.
Center Lines: Add center lines for circular features such as holes or cylinders. These are typically shown as alternating long and short dashes.
Accuracy and Alignment: Ensure that all line projections between views are precise and align with each other. Misalignments can lead to misunderstandings of the object's true shape.
Double-check: Verify that each view correctly represents the object's geometry. Each line, whether visible or hidden, should correctly correspond to the features of the object based on its three-dimensional geometry.
Practicing: Start with less complex objects to get a good grasp of how to project lines and interpret each view properly. As you get more comfortable, gradually move to more complex shapes.
In summary, orthographic projections require careful attention to detail and an understanding of how 3D objects can be represented in 2D. Practice is essential to mastering this skill, and it helps in developing spatial awareness and technical drawing proficiency.
