Points P1 and P2 can then be described – with reference to the pole – as follows:
P1: Radius =100 / angle =30°
P2: Radius =60 / angle =75°

Absolute and incremental dimensions
Absolute dimensions
With absolute dimensions, all the position specifications refer to the currently valid zero point.
Applied to tool movement this means: The absolute dimension data defines the position, to
which the tool is to travel.
