1.Invoke the Angular Dimension Trimmed command.

2.Specify the object to set the dimension from, and the symmetry axis of the dimension. The object and the axis are specified in the same way as angle sides (see section Angle sides configuration).
The graphic area will display the angle vertex and dimension phantom.

3.Select dimension type using the Type group.
After you specify the objects, two options become available:
