Sweep Along Filleted Rectangle

This method uses a circle swept along three straight lines forming three sides of a rectangle, with filleted corners. The given information is identical to that found in the previous method. The height of the rectangle is found by subtracting one half the material thickness from the given height of the handle. The fillet radius is found as in the previous example.
