Function-Loupe
This GeoGebra example, titled 'Loupe Kirsch' (Cherry Magnifier), demonstrates a geometric construction involving a cone, a triangle, and its incircle. The core mathematical concepts include conic sections, incircles of triangles, and real number coordinates. The construction uses GeoGebra commands to create text objects (Text1, Text2), points A and B, and an image object (Bild1), which are arranged to visually illustrate the relationship between the cone's cross-section and the triangle's inscribed circle. This example is suitable for high school or early college students to explore the intersection of solid and plane geometry through dynamic visualization.
