Drawing Lines Using Polar Coordinates
Learning Outcomes:
When you have completed this module, you will be able to:
Geometry Lesson
Angles
An angle is formed by two intersecting lines. A full circle is 360 degrees. AutoCAD defines
zero degrees at 3:00 o'clock with the positive angle in the counterclockwise direction and a
negative angle in the clockwise direction. Study the drawings below. The principles you will
learn are used extensively in AutoCAD.

stuck and can't complete it on your own, use the following hint(s) to help you.
Hint 1
Figure Hint 1
Object A Solution:
1. Find the polar coordinate A TO B: @2<0
2. Calculate the first angle: 180 - 150 = 30 degrees
3. Find the polar coordinate B TO C: @2<30
4. Copy the 30 degree angle to the next corner.
5. Calculate the second angle: 180 - 110 = 70 degrees
6. Add the two angles: 30 + 70 = 100 degrees
7. Find the polar coordinate C TO D: @3<100
9. Calculate angle DD: 180 - 100 = 80 degrees
10. Find angle EE: 100 + 80 = 180 degrees
11. Find the polar coordinate D TO E: @2<180
Object B Solution:
1. Find polar coordinate A TO B @3<0
2. Calculate angle AA: 180 - 135 = 45 degrees
3. Find polar coordinate B TO C @3<45
4. Copy angle AA to the next corner
5. Calculate angle BB 180 - 105 = 75 degrees
6. Find angle CC 45 + 75 = 120 degrees
7. Find polar coordinate C TO D @2<120
8. Copy angle CC to the next corner
9. Calculate angle DD 180 - 120 = 60 degrees
10. Find angle EE 120 + 60 = 180 degrees
11. Find polar coordinate D TO E @3<180
