Additionally, the following results are generated in this operation:

• The line connecting the curve and the selected line
• The angle of that line (relative to the x-axis)
• The coordinates of the selected (farthest or closest) point on the curve

Conventions of the Measure Tool

The Measure tool reports an angle associated with every line it finds, according to the following conventions:

• For the line defined by two points, the tool measures the angle between the line and the horizontal

plane. The tool assigned a positive or negative value to the angle, depending on the line’s direction.
Angles are positive if measured clockwise and negative if measured counterclockwise.
