Result:

The above sketches are drawn by using both Absolute and Relative coordinate systems.

The tools used for the completion of the geometries are:

  • LINE
  • PLINE
  • CIRCLE
  • ARC
  • POINT
  • DIMLIN
  • MOVE
  • COPY
  • ROTATE
  • FILLET
  • TRIM

Conclusion:

The sketching and drawing in the Auto CAD are drawn by using coordinate systems, as more we practise, we are able to do sketching and drawing fastly and accurately.
