Geometric Construction Contents Points and Lines Cartesian Coordinate System Planes Polygons Angles Circles and Ellipse Geometric Constraints Geometric Forms Points Points are used to indicate locations in space. Points are considered to have no height, width or depth. A point can be defined as a set of coordinates (x,y) on the Cartesian plane. Lines A straight line is the shortest distance between two points. Lines are considered to have length, but no other dimension such as width or thickness. Back to Contents Cartesian Coordinate System In order to locate objects in space, the Cartesian Coordinate System is used. This system not only helps to locate objects, but allows for sizes to be made from those locations. Cartesian Coordinates +Y -X The origin is the place where X, The X, ZY,are andallZ equal axes are number lines Y, and to zero. that are oriented as you see here. Placing the axis in this manner the user can locate points in space -Z +Z +X -Y Cartesian Points Absolute Coordinates Points that are defined by absolute coordinates refer to the origin for their numeric value. The point is identified by the absolute X and Y distance from zero. Relative or Incremental Coordinates Points that are defined by relative coordinates reference the previous point on the Cartesian plane. The final point is identified by the distance from the last point referenced. Renee Descartes (1596 – 1650) was the French philosopher and mathematician for whom the Cartesian Coordinate System is named. The Cartesian Coordinate System made it possible to represent geometric entities by numerical and algebraic expressions Descartes coordinate system remains the most commonly used coordinate system today for identifying points.

Polygons can be inscribed (drawn within a circumference) or circumscribed (drawn around a circumference). Polygons Inscribed Polygon An inscribed polygon can be constructed by determining the number of sides and the distance across the corners. Circle diameter = distance across corners 8-sided polygon Example: Connect radial lines where the ends intersect the circumference There are 360 in a circle; for an eight-sided polygon divide 360 by 8 (360 8=45 ) to determine the central angle. Polygons Circumscribed Polygon A circumscribed polygon can be constructed by determining the number of sides and the distance across the flats. Circle diameter = distance across the flats 8-sided polygon Example: Connect radial lines by drawing line segments tangent to arc segments There are 360 in a circle; for an eight-sided polygon divide 360 by 8 (360 8=45 ) to determine the central angle. Polygons Triangle Triangle •A triangle is a plane figure bounded by three straight sides. •The sum of the interior angles is always 180°. Polygons Triangle Equilateral Triangle – All sides equal; all angles equal. Isosceles Triangle – Two sides equal; two angles equal. Polygons Triangle Right Triangle – Contains one 90 angle. Scalene Triangle – No equal sides or angles. Polygons Quadrilateral Quadrilateral •A quadrilateral is a plane figure bounded by four straight sides. •If the opposite sides are parallel, the quadrilateral is also a parallelogram. Polygons Quadrilateral Parallelograms: Square – All sides equal, four right angles. Rectangle – Opposite sides are equal, four right angles. Polygons Quadrilateral Parallelograms: Rhombus – All sides equal; Opposite angles are equal. Rhomboid – Opposite sides are equal; Opposite angles are equal. Polygons Quadrilateral Trapezoid – Two sides parallel. Trapezium – No sides parallel.

Complementary Angles Two angles that make up 90°. Obtuse Angle - Angle that is greater than 90°. Right Angle - Angle equal to 90°. Supplementary Angles Two angles that make up 180°. Bisecting an Angle R Given Angle Strike Arc R any distance. Strike two arcs, shown here as .625. The arcs can be any size as long as they are equal. Draw a line from where the .625 arcs intersect to the vertex of the angle. This is the bisector of the angle. The angle is now divided into two equal angles. Back to Contents Circle Terms Chord is a line that has endpoints at the circumference of a circle The circumference of a circle is the Adistance circle is around a closedthe curve withofallthe outside points the curve an equal Center point circle. Toalong calculate the circumference: distance from a point Circumference = called Dia. Xthe center. The radius of a circle is half the diameter. The diameter is the longest chord in a circle that passes through the center point of a circle. An arc is a portion of the circumference of a circle. Ellipse The set of all points in the same plane whose sum of the distances from two fixed points is constant. The sum of the distances of the black lines equals the sum of the distances of the red lines. Back to Contents Geometric Constraints When making solid models, constraints are necessary to produce parts of exact shapes and sizes. To make a part parametric it is necessary to use as many geometric constraints as possible. The next set of slides will show what that geometry is. Geometric Constraints Parallel - Lines that are equal distance from each other at each point along their length. These two lines are parallel. The lines are also representing the symbol for parallel. Perpendicular - Lines that are 90° from one another. These two lines are perpendicular and represent the symbol for perpendicular. Geometric Constraints Horizontal - A line is horizontal when it is parallel to the horizon. In solid modeling, the line is also parallel in the horizontal projection plane and will appear true length. Vertical - A line is vertical when it is perpendicular to the horizon. This line will be parallel to the front and profile projection planes. Geometric Constraints Tangent - A line or arc that has one point in common with an arc. If a line is tangent with a circle(Figure A), the line will be perpendicular with a line drawn from the point of tangency through the center point of the arc. If two arcs are tangent (Figure B), a line drawn between the centers will intersect at the point of tangency. Figure A Figure B Geometric Constraints Concentric - Circles or arcs that share the same center point. These circles and the arcs share the same center point. Coincident - Points that share the same location on the coordinate plane. Points may also be parts of arcs or curves. Geometric Constraints Collinear - Lines that if projected at each other will become the same line. Collinear lines Coplanar - Two or more objects that sit in the same plane. Fixed Point - A point that has been forced to stay in one location in space. Equal - Two or more lines, arcs, or circles that are given the same magnitude. Back to Contents
