How to draw a line (300 MM) that is perpendicularly bisected by another known line? Is there a shortcut?
Draw a straight line perpendicular to it, extending 150 mm to each side of that line segment
Offset by 150mm each, connecting the two midpoints
Starting from one endpoint of the known line, draw 150 units to the left and 150 units to the right
First, draw 300 straight lines, then move their midpoints onto the known line (capturing the foot of the perpendicular)
Starting from one endpoint of the known line, draw 150 units on each side in the vertical direction, or draw a line that is 300 mm long, moving from the center as a reference point to the known line.
Capture the foot of the perpendicular, then translate it to the midpoint
In the object tracking settings, check the boxes next to ‘perpendicular foot’ and ‘midpoint’, then click OK. On the drawn line, the foot of the perpendicular and the midpoint will be displayed. By clicking on \"Orthogonal\", a line can be drawn at the midpoint of the segment, thereby obtaining the perpendicular bisector.
Starting from one endpoint of the known line, draw a line 300 mm long; then, using the midpoint of this 300 mm long line as a starting point, move to the endpoint of the known line.
I’ll say something too: it’s better to copy and paste the existing line and then rotate it 180 degrees – that way it becomes perpendicular, right? Hehe
Draw a straight line, then use the midpoint capture function to locate the midpoint, and after that draw a vertical line.
