The polygon tool, found
on the Draw toolbar, is a way to easily make a polygon with any number
of sides. First you will be asked for the number of sides, then the
center of the polygon. T hen you are asked whether you want to
circumscribe or inscribe the polygon. AutoCAD creates the shape based on
a circle of the given radius. you can choose whether you want the
polygon to lie inside a circle of that radius, or whether you want it to
lay outside a circle of that radius.
Inscribed = inside the
circle
Circumscribed = outside
the circle |
