This example demonstrates the geometric phenomenon of a cylinder rotating. Key mathematical concepts include solid geometry and rotation. Using GeoGebra commands such as Cylinder, Plane, and Mirror, a dynamic graphical representation of the rotating cylinder can be constructed. Suitable for high school or university-level solid geometry education.

GeoGebra Commands & Parameters

  1. Cylinder(A, B, 2) → a, c, d, b
  2. Plane(c) → e
  3. Mirror(b, e) → b'
  4. Mirror(b, e) → b'_1
  5. Mirror(b, xOyPlane) → b'_2
  6. Mirror(b'_2, e) → f
  7. Mirror(b'_2, zAxis) → g
