The concept of polar coordinates in AutoCAD obeys the principle of the trigonometric circle, thus creating the need to revise that part of math for a minute.
The trigonometric circle goes from 0 degrees to degrees. One lap of the circle is and degrees is equivalent to zero degrees on the circle. The mastery of the concept of angles is crucial to your ability to get things done in AutoCAD. You have to be capable of quickly deducing what the value of an angle is from the angle zero. On the images above you will notice the trigonometric circle with angles counted respectively from the positive side anticlockwise and from the negative side clockwise.
One of the most important information to have in mind is that AutoCAD always starts counting angles from zero. You will see why remembering this is important in a minute. The optional dimension label displays the calculated angle between the two lines. Select two lines, or enter p to specify points. If you entered p, specify a starting point, a vertex, and an ending point. The results of the calculation are displayed on the command line.
Step II: Now place the protractor in such a way that its straight horizontal edge is placed on XY and its centre is on X as shown in figure. Step III: Starting from zero from the right, we start reading the scale on the protractor. To DRAW an angle means to use a protractor to make an angle. Symbols can be inserted in text using one of the following methods: In the In-Place Text Editor, right-click and click Symbol.
On the expanded Text Formatting toolbar, click Symbol. Copy and paste from the Character Map. Enter the control code or Unicode string. Select the first point and second point of a line to be measured, as shown below: The dimension of the corresponding line will be displayed, as shown below:.
For example, in the current SI, it is stated that angles are dimensionless based on the definition that an angle in radians is arc length divided by radius, so the unit is surmised to be a derived unit of one, or a dimensionless unit.
The angle between two lines can be calculated from the slopes of the lines or from the equation of the two lines. The simplest formula to find the angle between the two lines is from the slope of the two lines.
Do one of the following to specify the length:. Drawing a straight angle using a protractor Draw a straight-line OA, with an arrowhead at A. Now keep the protractor on this line such that the baseline of the protractor is aligned over OA. Join the vertex of the line OA with the point B. Bisecting angles without a protractor Place the compass on the vertex of the angle point B.
