TransferenceIntroductionAt times you may need to move a geometric figure from one location toanother on the same or different drawing paper. Transfer polygons, andirregular figures by first drawing a triangle, square, rectangle, or circlearound the figure. You should know how to accurately transfer figures.TransferringanglesTo transfer an angle, use this table:StepAction1Given angle ABC, lay off a line equal to line AB at the newlocation on the same or different drawing paper (A’, B’).2Use any convenient radius (R, R’) and draw arcs using A and A’ ascenters.3Where the arcs intersect lines AB and A’B’, draw two arcs (r, r’)equal to the distance between A and C.4Draw a straight line from A and A’ to the intersection of the twoarcs R’ and r’.Figure 2-24 illustrates how to transfer angles.Figure 2-24.—Transferring angles.Continued on next page2-25
