content: Wheeler, Albert Harry
notes: label: Description
content: To show relationships among planes and angles, A. H. Wheeler designed a series of what he called platform models. All of these had a rectangular platform, with other segments (often other rectangles) secured to it. This tan paper model has a rectangular white base and a folded perpendicular piece. Part of the perpendicular piece is fixed and has three dashed lines drawn on it, perpendicular to the base. The other part of the perpendicular piece rotates. A sticker on the model leads L-PRO*.
