What do equal rectangle diagonals help prove?	They help show the rectangle is square within the chosen tolerance.	topicladder math math
Why mark clearance before cutting?	The part can be mathematically correct but still collide with fasteners, wires, tools, or movement.	topicladder math math
What does the 'Mark the fixed references' step prove?	A layout needs one edge, hole, or corner that everything else references. Check: The drawing shows which feature is fixed.	topicladder math math
What does the 'Check square with diagonals' step prove?	Equal diagonals can prove a rectangle is square enough for many builds. Check: The two diagonal measurements are close within the chosen tolerance.	topicladder math math
What does the 'Add clearance zones' step prove?	A part that fits on paper can still collide with fasteners, wires, or movement. Check: The sketch marks the areas that must stay empty.	topicladder math math
What does the 'Measure before cutting' step prove?	Permanent work should wait until the layout has a check. Check: The note lists the final check before cutting, drilling, or printing.	topicladder math math
When would you use `diagonal = sqrt(width^2 + height^2)`?	Use it to estimate a rectangle diagonal. Expected signal: The expected diagonal for a square-check comparison	topicladder math command
When would you use `clearance = opening - part_size`?	Use it to check fit before cutting or printing. Expected signal: A positive clearance value with units	topicladder math command
When would you use `center = length / 2`?	Use it to find the centerline of a part. Expected signal: A reference point for symmetric layout	topicladder math command
