Q. How do you sketch perpendicular lines?
A perpendicular line from a given point
- Place your compass on the given point (point P).
- From each arc on the line, draw another arc on the opposite side of the line from the given point (P).
- Use your ruler to join the given point (P) to the point where the arcs intersect (Q).

- Choose Keypoint Curve Tools > Line Tangent & Perp > Line Perpendicular .
- If you need to change the settings, click Change Settings, then:
- Select a point that will be the end of the perpendicular line.
- Select a curve that the line will be perpendicular to.
Q. How do you draw a perpendicular line from a point outside the line?
Construct perpendicular to a line from a given point outside the line
- draw a line.
- take a point A outside the line.
- From A draw equidistant arcs to cut the lines.
- From D and E draw two equidistant arcs on the opposite side of line.
- mark intersecting point of two arcs asF.
- join A and F.
Q. How do you make a curved line symmetric in Illustrator?
Click and drag with the Pen tool to create a curved path. Drag the direction line closer to the anchor point to flatten the curve; drag farther away from the anchor point to increase the curve, as shown in Figure 5-4. When you’re happy with the curve, release the mouse button. Adding curve to the curve.
Q. How do I make straight lines in Illustrator?
Drawing Straight Lines
- Select the Pen tool. from the toolbox or hit P as a shortcut.
- Click once on the artboard where you want the straight line segment to begin. Do not drag.
- Click again where you want to add the next anchor point.
- Continue clicking to set anchor points for additional straight segments.
Q. Where is the line tool in Illustrator?
Found in the Tools panel (it looks like a diagonal line), the Line Segment tool allows you to draw straight paths with a few mouse clicks. You can also select it by pressing the / key. Choose the Line Segment tool and then move your cursor where you’d like the straight line to start.
