 OBJECT FEATURES
Edges are lines that represent the boundary
between two faces.

Corners Represent the intersection of two or

more edges.
Edge Edge No edge

Corner No corner No corner

 OBJECT FEATURES
Surfaces are areas that are bounded by edges
or limiting element.
Limiting is a line that represents the last visible
element part of the curve surface.

 FILLET AND ROUND

To draw the arc, we must find the location of the

center of that arc.

How do we find the center of the arc?

To draw an arc of given radius tangent
to two perpendicular lines
Given arc radius r
center of the arc

C1 R2

C2

The center of two circles and tangent point lie on the same
straight line !!!
