This example demonstrates the similarity of equilateral triangles. It involves the concept of the properties of equilateral triangles. Using GeoGebra commands such as Segment, Circle, Intersect, and Polygon, multiple equilateral triangles are constructed and their similarity is observed. Suitable for students in middle school and above to learn geometric construction and the concept of similar triangles.

GeoGebra Commands & Parameters

  1. Segment(A, B) → a
  2. Circle(A, B) → c
  3. Circle(B, A) → d
  4. Intersect(c, d, 1) → C
  5. Polygon(A, B, C) → poly1, c_1, a_1, b
  6. Segment(A_1, B_1) → a_2
  7. Circle(A_1, B_1) → c_2
  8. Circle(B_1, A_1) → d_1
  9. Intersect(c_2, d_1, 1) → C_1
  10. Polygon(A_1, B_1, C_1) → poly1_1, c_3, a_3, b_1
