Tapered Extrusions

In this activity we opened the file called Extrude-Taper, and extrude the square a distance of 1 inch with a taper angle of -10°.Extruded objects can be givenpositive or negative taper angle. A common example of a tapered extrusion is the design of an ice cube. The sides of the ice cube are tapered with a draft angle to allow the cube to be easily removed from the ice cube tray.
