FINDING MID POINT OF ARC

[mikeSHNJV]

Please see the attached file. I need to cut up this sketch into exactly 3 even pieces keeping the angle on the end as the cut. This seems like something really simple that I am missing. Is there a way I can get a snap point or make a construction line to make the 2 cuts?

Thanks you MR

here's a possibility-

I need to find the midpoint between the center point xy and the end of the radius to cut it into 3 pieces. I know I can find the midpoint of the whole thing. Any idea?

you mean you can't see the videos?

create a diminsion for the angle of the whole arc, either driving or driven, doesn't mater.  create a diminsion for the segment you want, reference the dim for the whole arc and divide it to get the arc you want

Okay,

I totally understand now. I can see the screencasts now. Would you mind posing one of what you just did and I will mark it accepted.

THANK YOU!!!!!!

Hi,

another way

My 2 cents. 

PS, constrain and dimension the geometry as needed, but this way doesn't require maths or parameters 🙂
