Match Angle?

Have a group of lines (all the same length) radiating at different angles from a center point. I have another line (same length as those in the group) with a rectangle centered and perpendicular to the line. Can position one end at the center point of group but is there a command for moving the outside point so that it matches the orientation of the target?

You can set the CPlane by 3 points (CPlane). Its origin point can be at the center, where all the lines meet, and its two other points at end points of the blue and red line.

Both lines will consequently be coplanar and you can use the standard rotation tool (Rotate) to rotate the one towards the other.

Then you can enter the CPlane command again and hit Undo, to reset it to the World XY.

Another way would be to use the Orient command.
