Creation of geometries by Coordinate system methods using AutoCad

AIM:- To draw the geometric figures by using

1. Absolute cordinate method

2. Relative coordinate method

a. Relative rectangle method

b. Relative polar coordinate method

Apparaturs:- Auto cadd software

Introduction:-

Coordinates systems:- coordinate system is a system where numbers are used to detemine the unique position of points and/or other geometics elements.

The various coordinate systems are:-

  • Absolute coordinate system: in this system all points are established at some distance in the x &y axis from a common orgin
  • Relative coordinate system:- the location of a relative coordinate is defined by its distance from a reference point. in auto cadd when using this system the first point of the drawing/geometry is always absolute, i.e it is established with respect to origin (0,0) and then all the successive positions are established with respect to their preceding point. This system is futher classified as-
  • Relative rectangle coordinates: it is a coordinate system that specifes each point by a pair of numerical coordinates in the X-axis and Y-axis. in this system the points succeding the first point are typed in as @x,y in the command line.
  • Relative polar coordinate: this system specifies the distance and angle of a particular point . in relative polar coordinate system, points aare established by typing @distance
  • Direct distance entry method: it is another popular method used for drawing differnt shapes/geometries in Autocadd. direct distance entry method enables the user to draw an object by simply pointing the cursor in the desired in the command line.

PROCEDURE:

  • Go to start menu, select auto cad 2022.
  • click on the start drawing
  • in the command line type in: STARTUP (ENTER)
  • Enter new value of startup:1
  • Go to the appilcaton menu and select new
  • in the 'create new Drawing' dialog box, we select the 'imperical system' in the 'start form scratch' option
  • Next we select the 'decimal' unit system from the 'advanced steup' option
  • set limits by entering LIMITS in the command tab. The lower- left corner is specified as 0,0 and the upper right corner is specified as 100,100
