Example Problem
Occasionally, you will have to use a print that doesn’t provide all of the dimensions you
need to program the part. In the illustration below for example, the coordinates of points C
and D, where the arc is tangent to the sides, are unknown. These coordinates must be identi-
fied before programming lines B-C and A-D and the arc that extends from point D to point
C.

Strategy
Program the line from A to B directly from the
print. 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.
