d. To center the circle you will use the dimension tool again. However, when dimensioning the circle you will have to add the distance between the edges of the circle and the cube with the radius of the circle. For this demonstration your cube is 2 inches tall, the circle is 1 inch in diameter. This means that you will have ½ inch between the edge of the circle and the edge of the cube. But, because you have to measure from the center of circle you will have to make the dimension 1 inch. To do this:
i. Select dimension.
ii. Click in the center of the circle (green dot indicates center). Then click on the edge of the cube and pull the line above the cube. This will indicate the dimension.
iii. Change the dimension to 1 inch. You will need to double click on the dimension to open the dialogue box to change it.
iv. Do the same procedure to the left or right side. After completion, your circle will be centered on the face of the cube.
