1.1. Geometry A and B#
Geometry \(A\) is in the \(\mathit{XY}\) plane and consists of 3 sections.

Geometry \(B\) corresponds to geometry \(A\) to which the following 3 successive rotations are applied:
around the \(Z\) axis, a rotation of \(25.0°\), which gives the new \({X}_{1},{Y}_{1},{Z}_{1}\) coordinate system.
around the \({Y}_{1}\) axis, a rotation of \(-40.0°\), which gives the new \({X}_{2},{Y}_{2},{Z}_{2}\) coordinate system.
around the \({X}_{2}\) axis, a rotation of \(27.5°\).
