Use the following procedure to change the boundaries of the lots. 1 Click Menu Browser ➤ File ➤ Open. 2 In the Select File dialog box, find the \Help\GettingStarted folder in the AutoCAD or AutoCAD LT product folder and open map.dwg. 3 To simplify the display, turn off the Text layer. You first create a new property line on the left side of the triangular lot. The top end of the new property line will be displaced 25.73 feet; and the bottom end of the new property will be displaced by 39.94 feet. These distances were determined using trial-and-error to make lots 26 and 27 about equal in area, but without making lot 38 too narrow or too large. To accomplish this task, you create some "construction geometry" that makes the task easier. 4 Use the Circle command and object snaps to create a circle with a radius of 25.73 and a circle with a radius of 39.94 centered on the intersections as shown in the illustration. 96 | Chapter 7 Make Modifications

Use the following procedure to change the boundaries of the lots.
1
Click Menu Browser
➤
File
➤
Open.
2
In the Select File dialog box, find the
\Help\GettingStarted
folder in the AutoCAD or AutoCAD LT
product folder and open
map.dwg
.
3
To simplify the display, turn off the Text layer.
You first create a new property line on the left side of the triangular lot. The top end of the new
property line will be displaced 25.73 feet; and the bottom end of the new property will be
displaced by 39.94 feet. These distances were determined using trial-and-error to make lots 26
and 27 about equal in area, but without making lot 38 too narrow or too large.
To accomplish this task, you create some “construction geometry” that makes the task easier.
4
Use the Circle command and object snaps to create a circle with a radius of 25.73 and a circle
with a radius of 39.94 centered on the intersections as shown in the illustration.
