Finding the Points of Tangency

Keep in mind that the ultimate goal is to have GeoCalc determine the points of tangency
between the lines and the arc. Since the

FIND ARC

function calculates the arcs which are

tangent to the two selected lines, the ends of the arcs are the points we need. We just
have to select the arc and have GeoCalc find the end points.

Select

001 GEOLINE

and press the

SELECT FEATURE

softkey. This will de-select

the line.

Move down to

002 GEOLINE

and de-select it.

Move down to

003 GEOARC

and select it.

Press the

FIND POINT

softkey.

The three resulting points are the center and the ends of the arc. The end points are the
ones we are after; they are points C and D in our drawing.

Select one end point. Press

KEEP ONE

.

Move to the other end point. Press

KEEP ONE

.

Press

CLEAR RESULTS

to erase the arc’s center point.

We now have the tangent points,

004

and

005

, stored in the calculator.
