Tangent for a line

[T Miller]

I need some help on the best way to construct a line.

Ok what I have is 2 cresent shaped slots at the end of the slots are 4 radius

The slots are of 2 different widths . I create a circle out of the 4 radius. That comes out good. The angles of the end of the 4 radii are 40deg and 17deg for each slot What would be the best method to egt the tangent of each radii.

Would have been so much easier to just use the center of the radius.
Thanks
Tom

never had too much luck with trying to obtain tanget lines in pc-dmis.

if you could post a pic, it would be easyer to visualize what you are decribing. maybe you could offset a line or something...
