Convert from polar/sphere coordinates to cartesian coordinates.

polar(data: PolarCoordsData) -> [number]

Examples

const exampleSketch = startSketchOn('XZ')
  |> startProfileAt([0, 0], %)
  |> line(polar({ angle: 30, length: 5 }), %, $thing)
  |> line([0, 5], %)
  |> line([segEndX(thing), 0], %)
  |> line([-20, 10], %)
  |> close(%)

const example = extrude(5, exampleSketch)

Arguments

• data: PolarCoordsData - Data for polar coordinates. (REQUIRED)

{
	// The angle of the line (in degrees).
	angle: number,
	// The length of the line.
	length: number,
}

Returns

[number]
