5. Click the Plane toolbar button from the Reference Geometry flyout on the Features tab of
the CommandManager.
6. Select the large cylindrical face of the part as the First Reference and the axis you just
created as the Second Reference. (Go to View ➢ Hide/Show ➢ Axes if you cannot see the
axis.) Make sure the First Reference uses the Tangent constraint and the Second Reference
uses the Coincident constraint. This makes a plane tangent to the main cylinder in the part
that goes through the patterned hole, as shown in Figure 3.54.
