Snapping to Line during rotation

Asar
Hi

I am trying to solve a problem, I have a series of lines radiating out from a point, and I am trying to snap the end of a line to a line nearby during rotation without changing the line length... quite hard to explain so here are is a picture to illustrate my problem.

As the picture shows, I am attempting to rotate the line, but I want the end point of the line to snap to the point where it would meet the line that it currently is crossing...

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks

I'm not sure if I fully got your problem, but here are some thoughts:
- you can draw a circle in the rotation center with a radius of wanted line length and use snap to intersection to draw or rotate the wanted line
- draw another circle in the ray center, with a wanted offset to the outer circle, passing the intersection point and use snap to intersection
- for multiple lines, construct one of them and then use rotation tool with multiple copies and keep original to multiply it
