This article was produced as an assignment for a computer graphics course that I am currently teaching to high school seniors. The assignment was to produce an image of a cube in perspective with hidden lines removed.

The article describes the mathematics the students used to produce the image. They produced the actual image using Microsoft Excel. If any of you would like a copy of the spreadsheet, send your email address to me at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. and I will email it to you.

We are also in the process of putting up a website dedicated to applications of secondary mathematics in computer graphics. If you have any material you would like to contribute to this site, please contact me and I would be glad to add it to the site if it is suitable. There will be more about the site in the next edition of Consortium.
