SUMMARY
The discussion focuses on calculating the real size of a sphere beam given points A (a', a) and B (b', b) with a horizontal projection of point Q (q). The solution involves determining the radius of the sphere by first finding point Q' and constructing a plane J parallel to the Ox axis. The method includes projecting points onto this plane, creating a new axis perpendicular to it, and ultimately forming a triangle that confirms the positions of points A and B on the sphere's surface. The approach is validated through geometric constructions and projections.
