The following example shows a line drawn with relative polar coordinates.
Pressing
ENTER at the next To Point prompt ends the command.
To point: @3<45
To point: @5<285
To enter a polar coordinate (2D)
At a prompt for a point, enter the coordinate using the following format:
distance<angle
■ Distance represents the distance from the origin (0,0).
■ Angle represents the angle from the origin (0,0).
Enter 3D Coordinates
Cartesian, cylindrical, or spherical coordinates locate points when you are
creating objects in 3D.
Enter 3D Cartesian Coordinates
Entering 3D Cartesian coordinate values (X,Y,Z) is similar to entering 2D
coordinate values (X,Y). In addition to specifying X and Y values, you also
specify a Z value using the following format:
X,Y,Z
@3<45
@5<285
