Is it possible to have a macro which uses the length between to points to calculate another calculate, as in the following example:



documentclass[tikz,border=10pt]{standalone}
usepackage{tikz}
usetikzlibrary{calculations}
begin{document}

begin{tikzpicture}
coordinate (A) at (0,0);
coordinate (B) at (2,5);
coordinate (C) at (7,0);

% Is this possible?
% From point C to the direction of point A with the length of
% from point A to point B
% coordinate (D) at ($(C)!(A)!(A)-(B)$);
% or
% From point C to the direction of 60 degrees with the length of
% from point A to point B
% coordinate (D) at ($(C)!(60)!(A)-(B)$);

draw (A)--(B)--(C)--cycle;
end{tikzpicture}

end{document}
