Follow these steps to join the lines:
1. Click the Fillet tool on the Tool Sets palette, choose Modify Fillet from the menu bar,
or enter F ↵.
2. Type R 0 ↵ to make sure the fillet radius is set to zero.
CHAMFER VS. FILLET
The Chamfer command performs a function similar to the function the Fillet command performs,
but unlike Fillet, it enables you to join two lines with an intermediate beveled line rather than with
an arc. Chamfer can be set to join two lines at a corner in exactly the same manner as Fillet.
3. Fillet the two lines by picking the vertical and horizontal lines, as indicated in the bot-
tom panel in Figure 6.16 shown earlier in this chapter. Notice that these points lie on the
portion of the line you want to keep. Your drawing will look like the bottom panel in
Figure 6.16.
4. Fillet the bottom wall of the bathroom with the left wall of the unit, as shown in
Figure 6.17. Make sure the points you pick on the wall lines are on the side of the line
you want to keep, not on the side you want trimmed.
5. Fillet the top wall of the unit with the right-side wall of the bathroom, as shown in
Figure 6.17.

You can select two lines at once for the fillet operation by using a crossing window; to do so,
type C ↵ at the Select first object or ...: prompt. The two endpoints closest to the fillet
location are trimmed.
