std::math::polar manual

Convert polar/sphere (azimuth, elevation, distance) coordinates tocartesian (x/y/z grid) coordinates.

polar(angle: number(deg), length: number(mm)): [number(mm); 2]

Arguments

Name Type Description Required
angle number(deg) Yes
length number(mm) Yes

Returns

[number(mm); 2]

Examples

exampleSketch = startSketchOn(XZ)
  |> startProfileAt([0, 0], %)
  |> line(end = polar(angle = 30, length = 5), tag = $thing)
  |> line(end = [0, 5])
  |> line(end = [segEndX(thing), 0])
  |> line(end = [-20, 10])
  |> close()

example = extrude(exampleSketch, length = 5)
