The point is then located at the computed point of intersection.

Bearing-Bearing Intersect
Bearing-Distance Intersect
Bearing-Distance Intersect
Function
The Bearing-Distance Intersection command prompts the user for a base point from which the known bearing
intersects. Then define the bearing by one of three methods. The bearing can be defined by picking two points,
selecting a line with the same bearing or by typing in the bearing in the form of Qdd.mmss (similar to the Locate
by Bearing command). Next the user is prompted for a base point from which the known distance radiates. After
entering the known distance a circle is drawn radiating from the selected base point and a line defined by the bearing
is extended to intersect the circle. The user then picks the correct point for the solution desired and a point symbol
is located at the selected intersection. The command then erases the temporary circle and line.
NOTE: Except where noted, most of the Carlson routines leave the selection of the appropriate osnap mode up to
the user. If a command turns on an osnap the prompt line of a command will notate which osnap is on by enclosing
it in brackets. For example if the MIDpoint Osnap is on: [mid on] will appear in the point prompt line. Each of the
predefined point symbols have a POINT entity at the center of the symbol, therefore the NODE ObjectSNAP mode
should be used when snapping lines or other drawing entities to point symbols.
