A Rectangular prism of cross section 45 X 30 mm and height 55 mm rests

on the ground on one of its ends with one of its longer edges of the base
inclined at 300 to the VP. It is cut by a plane perpendicular to VP and
inclined at 300 to the HP. The cutting plane meets the axis at a point 45
mm above the base. Draw the development of the surface of the lower
part of the prism.
