How do you create a star with 7 points, inner radius 25 pt and outer radius 75 pt?

How do you create a star with 7 points, inner radius 25 pt and outer radius 75 pt?

• A. Select the Star tool, click on the artboard, enter the Radius and points values in the box.
• B. Use the Polygon tool with 7 sides
• C. Draw a star with the Pen tool by hand
• D. Import a star from Glyphs

Answer: (A)

Using the Star tool with precise dialog lets you create a star with exact geometry. In Illustrator, select the Star tool, click the artboard to open the Star Options dialog, set the number of points to seven, set the outer radius to 75 pt and the inner radius to 25 pt, then confirm. The outer radius controls how far the star’s tips extend from the center, while the inner radius sets the distance to the inner corners between spikes; together they define the star’s overall shape and proportions. This method directly yields a symmetrical seven-point star with the specified measurements. Using the Polygon tool with seven sides would produce a seven-sided polygon, not a star. Drawing with the Pen tool by hand is possible but imprecise and time-consuming for exact radii. Importing from Glyphs would bring in a symbol that may not match these exact dimensions or point count.
