LINE_CA <line number>, <circle>, <angle>, <option>

Create a line tangent to a circle with an angle.

<line number>: The number of the line to be created.; A number between 1 and 100.
<circle>: The number of an existing circle.
<angle>: angle value, either degrees or radians. Positive angles indicate a CCW direction, negative for CW.

Use the DEGREES or RADIANS commands to switch between the two angle modes.
<option>: 1 or 2, to select one of the 2 possible solutions.

LINE_CA 1, 1, 45, 1

LINE_CA 2, 1, 45, 2
