How to draw a line with coordinates, azimuth and a specific length (polar coordinates)

To put this tutorial into practice, let's use the sample data below:

Coordinate point A = 635400,1785100

AB length = 100 meters

Azimut ab = 60d50'10 "

The first step to create a line from the previous data is to establish the drawing units and management control, how:

1. Click the Format menu. Then select units or you can also write units in the command.

2. In the Drawing Units dialog box, make the following configuration.

In the length section. Write select decimal and precision Select 0.00

In the angle section. Write Select Deg/Min/Se | Precision Select 0D00'00 ”| Make sure the box is marked.

On the insertion scale, select meters.

Click the Instructions button. In the steering control dialog box, in the base angle section, select to the north. Then click OK.

Click OK to finish the configuration of drawing units.
