40 diameter circle
The command line prompts you to enter the circle diameter.
The default is 20, so it is only necessary to change this value. Type 40 j
The command line prompts you again to enter the co-ordinates of the circle
centre. This circle is to be positioned with its centre at the same point as
the middle 20-diameter circle. So instead of typing in the co-ordinates, you
can use a snapping function to snap the circle centre to an existing
position.
Select UTILS | Snaps | centre of 8. The command line changes
from prompting for the circle centre to prompting you to select the circle to
whose centre you want to snap.
Click [ on the edge of the middle 20-diameter circle. The 40-diameter
circle is drawn.

The command line prompts you again to enter the circle diameter. The
default is 40, so it is only necessary to change this value. Type 10 j
Select UTILS | Snaps | centre of 8. Click [ on the edge of an outer
fillet radius.
