Subject: Drawing polygons by vertex



You can create an equal-sided polygon defined by its center point and the distance to its vertices. First specify the number of sides, then the center point, and then the loca­tion of one vertex, which determines both the size and orientation of the polygon.

   1   Do one of the following to choose Polygon Center-Vertex ():

   On the ribbon, choose Home > Polygon Center-Vertex or choose Draw > Polygon Center-Vertex.

   On the menu, choose Draw > Polygon > Polygon Center-Vertex.
