Hello, welcome to the world of computer aided design with solid votes.
In today's session, we are going to learn how to create polygons in SolidWorks.
You're already in sketching enlightenment.
And here we have these sketching tools.
So let us click on this polygon tool to activate it.
As I clicked on this polygon to see here we have this Polygon property manager, the barometer's area.
We have this number of sites added box, and the current value for this added box is set to six.
Which means if we create a polygon with these default barometers, the polygon created will be a hexagon.
There are two radio buttons available below this number of sites.
Every box first one is inscribed circle.
Second one is Circumscribes Circle and currently inscribed circle.
Radio button is selected.
So if I go with these default values set here, let us see what kind of polygon is created.
So first of all, I have to specify the central point pulling them.
So I'll click here at the Origin for the center point.
Next thing I have to specify, the radius of the circle which will be inscribed inside this polygon
radius of the circle, will determine the size of this polygon.
Sally.
Click here for the radius of that inscribed circle.
You can see we have created a polygon and the circle is inscribed inside this pulley.
This is because we have chosen the inscribes so-called radio button here.
Current greatest value for this inscribed circle is one one, one point one it.
Change it to one twenty one point B and press enter.
Can see the size of the polygon has increased.
Let us choose this circumscribes circle radio button.
Also, let us change the number of sites to eight so that we can create an octagon.
Now I click here for the centrepoint of the circumscribes circle and I click here for the radius of
that circumscribed circle.
You can see the circle is outside this polygons, which means it is a circumscribes circle.
Gurren creates value for the circumscribes circle is seventy eight point zero.
And change it to say a hundred end up.
You can see the size of the polygon has changed.
Also the number of sites is now eight.
After creating both the polygons, I'll click on this close data button to get out of the polygon to
thank you for watching this video.
