Locating the view of the table looking straight in at it from the right, is also similar to a shadow been cast on the wall (E.V.P.) by the table when a window is directly beside the table. Notice here that the shadow cast is the outline of the table top edge, and the legs. The blue lines show the way the light casts the shadow onto the wall. We do not see the shadow cast by the legs furthest from us, because the ones nearest the window covers them.

You should recall that the line of intersection between the H.P. and the V.P. is called the 'XY', if you look at the drawing above you will see that there is also a line of intersection between the H.P. and the E.V.P. this is also the 'XY', you will see the reason for this later. The line of intersection between the V.P. and the E.V.P. is called the 'YY'.
