AutoCAD Line Command

Hello Friends,

Today we will continue to Line Command.In last post we have seen Direct value or Ortho Method to draw a line.Today We will learn how to draw a line on any angle.

Command : Line ( Press Enter)

Short-cut : L (Press Enter )

Menu : Draw > Line

Tool Icon / Ribbon : 

Expression : @ Distance < Angle

In this method, After specifying First point on screen ,type @ then type distance ,then Angle.

In Counter Clockwise (CCW) or Anti Clockwise (ACW) direction ,All Angles are Positive.In Clockwise (CW) direction,All Angles are Negative.

Suppose We want to draw a Pentagon.Distance of All sides are same suppose 5.

First Type Line Command,Then Specify First point by Mouseclick anywhere on Screen.

Next Point is going right direction, line is Horizontal straight line in right side...So Angle in Right direction is 0 and distance is 5. So we have to type @5<0 to draw a line.

For Next line Reference is given 18 from 90 angle.We always take angle from 0. so (90-18) angle is 72 and distance 5.So we have to type @5<72 to draw a line.

 For Next line Reference is given 36 from 180 angle.We always take angle from 0. so (180-36) angle is 144 and distance 5.So we have to type @5<144 to draw a line.

Direct Reference is not given to draw a line.in Mathematics there is one rule for opposite angle are same.So indirect reference angle is 36 from 180 in counter clockwise. so (180+36) angle is 216 and distance 5.So we have to type @5<216

to draw a line.

If you continue to draw a line without break or cancel command.So you can directly use CLOSE(C) option to close the fig.you can take (270+18) angle 288 and distance 5.Type @5<288 to close fig. then Press ESC key to cancel command.

 

Steps:

Specify First point : Mouse click anywhere on screen

Specify Next point or (Undo) : @5<0 (Enter)

Specify Next point or (Close/Undo): @5<72 (Enter)

Specify Next point or (Close/Undo) : @5<144 (Enter)

Specify Next point or (Close/Undo):   @5<216(Enter)

Specify Next point or (Close/Undo) : C(Enter) or @5<288(Enter)

you can also draw all the line on angle.but for that distance and angle both are given for that line.
