Dividing the auxiliary line near "point" (coordinates) (40, 0)

  1. Choose Geometry Edit Divide Near Point. This option will divide the line at the point ("element") on the line closest to the coordinates entered.
  2. Notice that the pointer has become a cross. Select the line that is to be divided by clicking on it.

  4. Press ESC to indicate that the process of dividing the line is finished.
