endpointcart#

[x2, y2, lineslope] = endpointcart(x1, y1, linelength, lineangle, dispout)

Description#

Find an end point of the straight line segment from its starting point (x1,y1) and its angle on cartesian coordinate

Inputs#

x1

x of start point (first point)

y1

y of start point (first point)

linelength=1;

Length of a line segment

lineangle=0;

Angle of a line segment from start point (first point) toward end point (last point) in (Degree)

dispout=’no’;

Define to display outputs or not (‘yes’: display, ‘no’: not display)

Outputs#

x2

x of end point (last point)

y2

y of end point (last point)

lineslope
Slope of a line segment from start point (first point) toward end point (last point) in (Degree)
lineslope=tan(deg2rad(lineangle))

Examples#

x1=3;
y1=3;
linelength=5;
lineangle=45;
[x2,y2,lineslope]=endpointcart(x1,y1,linelength,lineangle,'yes');

x1=[0;0;0;0;0;0;0;0];
y1=[0;0;0;0;0;0;0;0];
linelength=5;
lineangle=[0;45;90;135;180;225;270;315];
[x2,y2,lineslope]=endpointcart(x1,y1,linelength,lineangle,'no');
