---

Circles and arcs have a direction. Normally the direction is counterclockwise, in the case of mirrored objects clockwise.

Please look for starting and ending points of arcs in counterclockwise direction. In the standard case you can find the imaginary starting point of a circle looking from the center in positive x direction of the circle's coordinate system.
