Example Problem
Occasionally, a print will not provide all of the dimensions needed to program the part. In
the illustration below for example, the coordinates of points C and D, where the arc is tan-
gent to the sides, are unknown. The coordinates will have to be identified before lines B-C
and A-D and the arc that extends from point D to point C can be programmed.

Strategy
First program the line from A to B directly from
the print provided. Then use GeoCalc to calculate
the rest.
The strategy will be:
•
Enter the line from A to D.
•
Enter the line from B to C.
•
Select lines A-D and B-C, and then use the
FIND ARC
function.
•
Calculate points C and D, then return their
coordinates and the arc into the program.
