Learning Activities:
Learning Concept:
The Draw commands is used to create new objects such as lines and circles. A good
understanding of the Draw commands is fundamental to the efficient use of AutoCAD.

Step 1 Type L or Line in the command window. Step 2 Drag the mouse slowly then input 4.
Line specify first point: pick pt A. Specify next point or [Undo]: pick pt B.
Step 3 Drag the mouse slowly then input 4. Step 4 Drag the mouse slowly then input 4.
Specify next point or [Undo]: pick pt C. Specify next point or [Undo]: pick pt D.

Hands-on Exercise:
Using the LINE, POLYGON, and RECTANG commands, draw the following objects.
Specify center point for circle or [3P/2P/Ttr (ttr)]: (pick any point A)
Specify radius of circle or [Diameter]: (type value, then ENTER)
Command: mtext or mt
Current text style: “Standard” Text height: 0.2004
Specify first corner: (pick any point)
Specify opposite corner or [Height/Justify/Line spacing/Rotation/Style/Width]:
(pick other point diagonally)
1. Create the object shown below by first drawing a six-sided polygon with the
POLYGON command. Then draw the six-pointed star using the LINE command.
