This example demonstrates the use of the CTANF function to extract two vectors tangent to a circle at different positions.
Two Vectors Tangent to a Circle
ENTITY/C1
NUMBER/A(3),B(3)
C1=CIRCLE/0,0,2.,START,0,END,180
Statement |
Assigned Value |
A=CTANF(C1,.5) |
A(1)=-2,A(2)=0,A(3)=0 |
B=CTANF(C1,1.5) |
B(1)=2,A(2)=0,A(3)=0 |
