Perpendicular¶

Qualified name: manimextra.geometry.Perpendicular

class manimextra.geometry.Perpendicular(line, dot, length=1.0, rotate=False, **kwargs)¶

Bases: Line

A class to represent a perpendicular line to another line.

Parameters:

line (Line) – The line to which the perpendicular line is drawn.
dot (Point3DLike) – The point through which the perpendicular line passes.
length (float, optional) – The length of the perpendicular line, by default 1.0.
rotate (bool, optional) – Use if you want the perpendicular to be in the other direction, by default False.

Examples

Example: PerpendicularExample ¶

from manim import *
from manimextra import *

class PerpendicularExample(Scene):
    def construct(self):
        line = Line(2 * LEFT, 2 * RIGHT, color=YELLOW)
        dot = Dot(RIGHT + UP)
        perpendicular = Perpendicular(line, dot, color=RED)
        self.add(line, dot, perpendicular)
