Angle, Symmetric, FIllet practice

Set document to MM

Step 1) Make a circle, centered at origin with a diameter of 30. Then create a circle with a diameter of 20 to its right.

Step 2) Connect the 2 circles with 2 lines coincident on to both circles. You should see the highlighted constraints when you mouseover either of them:

Step 3) Dimention the angle between the 2 lines to be 12 degrees. Make sure it’s the ANGLE , not the distance. If you’re not sure how to do that, watch this short animation.

Step 4) Create a construction line connecting centers, then make the two lines symmetric to that line:

Step 5) Add the 2 dimensions shown . The shape should now be fully defined (all black)

Step 6) Extrude the middle part by 15 . Symmetric extrude and then add a 1 MM Fillet:

Step 7) Extrude th e2 circle by 30 MM (no pic. You should be able to do this on your own)

How to Dimension an angle

To dimension and angle in onShape, you click on each side after the dimension tool

Angles w Fillet

Workspace Units: MM, use the front plane

Step 1) Create 2 line segments, centered at the origin (as always) and dimension them to 10 MM each

step 2) These should be angled at 45 degrees

Step 3) Add a 12 and 9 MM segments :

Step 4) Dimension the 2 angles to 140:

step 5) Connect with a tangent arc

Step 6) Add a 5 MM symmetric extrude

Step 7) Fillet the Edge of Extrude 1 in these 3 places:

Step 8) Final Filletted version:

Lines and Angles and Symmetric Extrude

Step 1) Open up a new document.

Step 2) Create a line of length 2 from the origin and line of length 3 from the origin; something like . Their exact angle doesn’t matter, just something like :

Step 3) Create a 45 degree angle between the 2 line segments:

Step 4) Connect the end points with a tangent arc:

Step 5) Dimension the center of that arc with the point of top line as shown:

Step 6) Create an inscribed circle as shown :

Step 7) Create a symmetric extrude

Step 8) Finished product. Notice how the symmetric extrude goes up and goes down:

Advanced Parts Design Tips I

Step 1)

lines should be larger on right side

Step 2) Make the blue lines symmetric to the construction line

Step 3) Click on the top line and construction and dimension the 1.5 degree angle

Step 4) dimension the 2 left side points to 1.5

Step 5) Resulting picture :

Array Loops

Objects

Array Fun 2 [2025]

Complete all the methods below. When you are done, copy and paste the testmethods.v5.1 into your class and run it to see if you have any obvious errors. The above code does not guarantee you a 100 but will help catch most of the common errors that students make.

Note: You may not use any external libraries (like Java.Arrays etc )or import any code. Everything can be done with just loops and variables.

int sumEveryN(int[] nums, int n)

Description:This method returns the sum of every n elements of nums ..

Method Call	return value/output
sumEveryN( {1 , 2 , 3 , 4 }, 2 )	4( ie 1 +3)
sumEveryN( {13 , 42, 15, 33 , 44 , 16 , 52} ,3)	98 ( ie 13 + 33+ 52)

String[] doubleArr(String[] strs)

Description: This method returns a new version of strs in which each element now appears twice. This can be done with a for-each loop, which I believe is easier and more intuitive.

Method Call	return value/output
doubleArr( {“a”,”b”,”c”} )	{“a”,”a”,”b”,”b”, “c” , “c”}
doubleArr( {“math”,”ware”,”house”,”.com” })	{“math”,”math”,”ware”,”ware”,”house”,”house”,”.com”, “.com”}

int indexOf5(int[] nums )

Description:This returns the index of the first occurrence element 5 or -1 if 5 does not appear anywhere in the array.

Method Call	return value/output
indexOf5( { 2 , 3 , 5 , 4 } )	2
indexOf5( { 2 , 3 , 5 , 4, 5 } )	2
indexOf5( { 2 , 3 ,7 , 4, 3, } )	-1

More Sample calls and return vals

int indexOf(int[] nums, int num)

Description: This method returns the index value of the first appearance of num or -1 if num is not an element of nums .

Method Call	return value/output
indexOf( {6,4 ,7,3, 4 }, 4)	1
indexOf( {6,4 7 ,3,2,7}, 7)	2
indexOf( {6,4 ,2,3}, 22)	-1

int[] randos(int start, int end, int howMany)

Description: This method returns an array of random numbers between [start,end] . Note make sure that each element in the new array attempts to make a new random int. Use Math.random() , do not use any other mechanism for finding a random number.

More example calls and returns :

double meanBetween(int[] nums, int min, int max)

Description: This method returns the mean of nums ; however, this method only counts values within the range (min,max) as shown in the examples below:
