        """This method constructs an arc using a center point and two vertices. The Arc object is
        added to the geometry repository of the ConstrainedSketch object. The arc is created in
        a clockwise fashion from *point1* to *point2*.

        Parameters
        ----------
        center
            A pair of Floats specifying the center point of the arc. 
        point1
            A pair of Floats specifying the first endpoint of the arc. 
        point2
            A pair of Floats specifying the second endpoint of the arc. 
        direction
            A SymbolicConstant specifying the direction of the arc. Possible values are CLOCKWISE 
            and COUNTERCLOCKWISE. 

        Returns
        -------
            A ConstrainedSketchGeometry object (None if the arc cannot be created). 

        Raises
        ------
            If incompatible data are given, the second endpoint is ignored.
