Circular to Linear blocks
When the coordinates of the intersection of a circular path into a linear
path are unknown, use the following format. G13 or G13.1 must be
programmed in the first of the two blocks. These blocks must be
programmed in absolute.
Format:
G13G02I__K_; or G13G02R__;
G01,A__Z__X__; G01,A__Z__X__;
Important: K values are the normal integrand values when you use this
format (measured from start point of arc to arc center).

Important: R cannot be programmed to specify the arc radius for linear to
circular block combinations unless the two tool paths are tangent.
