I'm trying to get a line parallel to an established line through a point. I've got a property line that's been established by two Iron Pipes and i've got a concrete monument that is the start of another property line that runs parallel to the first mentioned property line per the deed. I cant use the 'parallel line' comand because i dont know the offset distance. Any ideas?
I tried using the 'angle resection' command, but i cant seem to get it to work… If i've got 3 points (the two IP's i've got my PL set on and the concrete monument) I set point 1 as the first iron pipe, then 2 as the concrete monument, and 3 as the second iron pipe (point 1 to 3 being the known property line) and then if i set angle 1 and angle 2 to 90 degrees, shouldnt it give me a point inline with Point 1 and 3 and perpendicular with the concrete monument (point 2).
