Creation of geometries by Coordinate system methods using AutoCad
AIM:
To create the geometries from p1 to p2 using all the coordinates system methods.
1)ABSOLUTE COORDINATE SYSTEM.
2)RELATIVE COORDINATE SYSTEM.
3)POLAR COORDINATE SYSTEM.
INTRODUCTION:
Using the absolute coordinate system and relative coordinate system, polar coordinate system.
Click the AutoCad icon from desktop and go to the start>ALL PROGRAMS>Autodesk>AutoCad.
Click NEw icon to open a new drawing.
Set the limits and units.
Using commands line command and circle command.
