Heath Carmody | Straight Lines, Curves and Triangles pt. 1 @heathcarmody2867 | Uploaded December 2023 | Updated October 2024, 1 day ago.
This is part 1 of a series that could go in multiple directions depending on the feedback I get. I want to go right back to the basics of angles, right triangles, and curves, while doing as little actual math as possible. I made a new simple tool to help me visualize and understand these concepts, and I hope it will help others.
To clarify, I'm not asking for exact pixel layout of points to draw the lines, I'm only asking for a general outline of a procedure that would draw the appearance of a curve using only straight line segments (as many as needed to visually appear to be a consistent curve) using the dimensions of the triangle provided. There may be multiple ways to approach it, but I'll explain my way in the next video and address any feedback on this video.
