Activity 5.2a Geometric Constraints
In Activity 5.2a, we tested geometric constraints on a drawing file in Autodesk Inventor 2016. Among these geometric constraints, there is a parallel constraint, horizontal constraint, vertical constraint, perpendicular constraint, fix constraint, equal constraint, tangent constraint, symmetric constraint, coincident constraint, concentric constraint, collinear constraint and smooth constraint. After we completed this activity, we turned it as a PDF which is shown below.

Conclusion Questions
1.What is a geometric constraint? A geometric constraint is an application made onto a geometric figure that changes it according to geometric laws for the purposes of building a particular shape or structure.
2.How is a geometric constraint different from a numeric constraint? A geometric constraint is different from a numeric constraint because a geometric constraint changes the shape and structure of a geometric figure whereas a numeric constraint changes the size and location of a geometric figure.
