May 16, 2019 at 16:25 comment added Rusty Core @JoelReyesNoche Engineering Drawing is more about correct labelling, about how the arrows look and where the numbers are placed and how to indicate say a section vs an inner cutout. I think that the OP asks more about solving where the section plane will cut a 3D figure, which is more about stereometry or solid geometry, and less about drafting to industry standards.

May 16, 2019 at 13:08 comment added Gerald Edgar Back in the Olden Days (before desktop computers) there would be one or more courses on "Mechanical Drawing" which taught how to do this. (Now completely replaced by courses on CAD/CAM.) So, maybe look for textbooks called "Mechanical Drawing" from before 1980, if you can still find them.
