What is Circle?

A round plane figure whose boundary (circumference) consists of points equidistant from a fixed point (center).

Circle Command:

The shortcut key for circle command is "C". You can also access to circle command by clicking this icon.
There are different options/ways to draw a circle in AutoCAD. The default one is the center, radius. Other options/ways written as below:
  1. Center, Radis
  2. Center, Diameter
  3. 2-Point
  4. 3-Point
  5. Tangent, Tangent, Radius
  6. Tangent, Tangent, Tangent

Center, Radius:

First, you need to specify the center point of a circle then specify the radius of your circle with a keyboard or with the help of mouse.

The above circle draws with a center, radius. Its radius is 10.

Center, Diameter:

First, you need to specify the center point of your circle then specify the diameter of your circle with a keyboard or with the help o mouse. 

The above circle draws with a center, diameter. Its diameter is 10 units.

2-Point:

Specify the first point of your circle. That first point on the circumference of a circle. Then specify the second the point of the circle. That second point, also on the circumference of a circle.  

3-Point:

Draw a circle based on three points on the circumference same as 2-Point.

Tangent, Tangent, Radius:

Draw a circle with specified radius tangent to two objects.
First, specify the two tangents and then specify the radius of a circle.

Tangent, Tangent, Tangent:

Create a circle tangent to three objects.

what is the difference between line and polyline in AutoCAD?

Difference between Line and Polyline (Pline): The Line and Polyline are two commands with different properties in AutoCAD. In Line Command every time we click, the part between two points.  The Line Command allows you to create a single straight line or a chain of straight lines.  When we select a polyline it selected as a whole object. On the other side when we select Line it is selected as a single line segment.  We can edit Polyline with " PEDIT Command ". On the other side, there is no specific command to edit line. Pline Command can draw curve segments as well as line straight ones but Line Command can draw only line segments. A polyline can have width but a line has no width. After drawing a polyline, you can use the PEdit Command to reshape the polyline into a smooth, flowing curve based on the vertex points you selected but you cannot do this with the line. We can select one line among the chain of lines to edit the drawing. However, in the  Polyline

ARC Command: ARC: Arc is part of a curve, especially a part of the circumference of a circle. Command: The shortcut key of ARC command is "A". You can also access ARC command by clicking this icon There are different options/ways to draw ARC in AutoCAD. The default one is 3-point. Other options/ways written as below: 3-Point Start, Center, End Start, Center, Angle Start, Center, Length Start, End, Angle Start, End, Direction Start, End, Radius Center, Start, End Center, Start, Length Continue 3-Point: In 3-Point, you need to specify three points with the help of a mouse or keyboard. These three points are on the circumference. Start, Center, End: First, specify the starting point of the arc then center and then the endpoint of the arc. Start, Center, Angle: The first point you specify on the screen is the starting point. Then you need to specify the center point as above and then give the angle to give direction. Star

Polyline Command Polyline: A polyline is a connected sequence of segments created as a single planer object. You can create straight line segments, arc segments or a combination of two. Polyline is also called PLINE and short form of pline is PL. You can also access Polyline command by clicking this icon. You can also modify polyline. There are some modifications as below: Arc Close  Halfwidth Length  Undo Width Sets the starting point for polyline If you specify the second point, you draw line segments. If you enter "a" (a for arc), you draw arc segments. ARC: The following prompts are displayed when you draw arc segments. End Pont Angle Center Close  Direction Halfwidth line  Radius  second pt undo width Watch the  video  about Polyline Command. Also, Like our  Facebook Page  and  YouTube Channel .
