Convert polar/sphere (azimuth, elevation, distance) coordinates to cartesian (x/y/z grid) coordinates.
|
|
|
|
```kcl
|
|
polar(
|
|
angle: number(rad),
|
|
length: number(Length),
|
|
): Point2d
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Arguments
|
|
|
|
| Name | Type | Description | Required |
|
|
|----------|------|-------------|----------|
|
|
| `angle` | [`number(rad)`](/docs/kcl-std/types/std-types-number) | A number. | Yes |
|
|
| `length` | [`number(Length)`](/docs/kcl-std/types/std-types-number) | A number. | Yes |
|
|
|
|
### Returns
|
|
|
|
[`Point2d`](/docs/kcl-std/types/std-types-Point2d) - A point in two dimensional space.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Examples
|
|
|
|
```kcl
|
|
exampleSketch = startSketchOn(XZ)
|
|
|> startProfile(at = [0, 0])
|
|
|> line(end = polar(angle = 30deg, length = 5), tag = $thing)
|
|
|> line(end = [0, 5])
|
|
|> line(end = [segEndX(thing), 0])
|
|
|> line(end = [-20, 10])
|
|
|> close()
|
|
|
|
example = extrude(exampleSketch, length = 5)
|
|
|
|
```
