I thought this would be simple but I can't get it to work.
I'm trying to draw an arc that's tangent to a line at a specific point and tangent to an arc. I drew the line, started the arc command, hit enter to force the arc tangent to the line at the endpont and then tried to use a Tangent OSnap to hit tangent to the arc. This is what I got. Note the Tangent snap at the midpoint of the arc.
If I accept the Tangent snap it does draw the new arc to the midpoint of the existing arc. Definitely not tangent. Does this mean there is no solution? I think I'm missing something. I'm usually aiming for a set radius and have no trouble. This is kind of a Best Fit situation. The only criteria are that the new arc be tangent to the red line at the intersection with the yellow line and tangent to the red arc.
