In this challenge, we will perfect how to handle positioning and location in AutoCAD.
This session will require the Object SNAP mode. The exercise is easy, but you must be cautious while working on the project.
It will be helpful to be able to use the OFFSET command and create a circle using the features Tan, Tan, and Radius.

The following is the exercise we will be using in this session.
Figure 1
Additional important information is indicated in the following picture.
Figure 2
Execution
The following is the key image that will help complete this project.
You need first to get the above image and then trim it. It would be best if you got the following:
You need to give the red part an OFFSET of 10 units now, and you will end up with the following.
I imagine it is all clear now. You undoubtedly know what to do next to complete this. Do not forget the two FILLET of R5 located below the two circles.

I am not sure why it does not work for you. Try drawing a circle around the line of 20 units having that line as its diameter, and use the circle to create the tan-tan-radius instead of the line.
Hope you get it.
Hey Andreea….
I think Mark is right here……
I am getting the same result…..
Just tell me if i am wrong somewhere…
I don’t think that 150 rad. ARC is tangent at points A & B mentioned above. I think that its a simple ARC which can be constructed with the use of “ARC – Start, End, Radius” command, with A & B as start & end points resp. and 150 as radius.
