I have points with irrational coordinates, because I'm mixing polar and Cartesian coordinates. I'd like to specify a coordinate as the x-value of one thing and the y-value of another thing.



In this specific example, I want the two lines on the left to have the same left endpoints.



documentclass{standalone}
usepackage{tikz}
usetikzlibrary{calc}

begin{document}

begin{tikzpicture}
coordinate (left) at (155:2);
coordinate (top) at (65:2);
coordinate (bottom) at (245:2);
coordinate (right) at (335:2);

coordinate (leftEdge) at ($ (left) + (-2,0) $);
coordinate (bottomEdge) at ($ (bottom) + (0,-2) $);

path[draw=black] (left) -- (top) -- (right) -- (bottom) -- cycle;
path[draw=blue] (left) -- (leftEdge);
path[draw=black] (bottom) -- (bottomEdge);
path[draw=red] (bottom) -- ++(-2,0);
end{tikzpicture}

end{document}


I think there's a way to do this with something like (leftEdge.x,bottom.y), but I've been unsuccessful in getting it to work.

How can I get the red edge to go as far left as the blue edge?
