Line from two points

Line from two points creates a finite line from two endpoints. Use the following procedure to create the line:

1. Click the Line from two points button from the Geometry toolbar or the Geometry Constructors dialog box. (This dialog box is displayed by clicking on the Geometry step in the Steps Toolbox.)

2. Pick or type the first point.

3. If you want to explicitly locate the second point, Pick or type the second coordinate.

4. If instead you want to enter an angle and length (from which the second point is derived):

• Press the TAB key three times to move to the A field.

• Type in the angle.

• Press the TAB key and enter the length in the L field.

5. Press the ENTER key or click the Create button.

6. When you are done creating lines, exit line mode.
