Abstract

The procedures to be presented in this chapter are those that enable the programmer to construct tangent lines to circular curves, or circular arcs tangent to one or more lines and/or other circular arcs. In addition to the procedures of this chapter, there are three other procedures, the iccvt2ls, the icsmpcrv and the iccrvpoc, that have been described in Chap. 5. These three procedures introduce an arc tangent to two lines under three distinct conditions.
