PolygonTransformationGeometric Construction
This example uses GeoGebra to demonstrate the concept of similar transformations. It involves key mathematical concepts such as similar transformations, segments, and centers. By using commands like Polygon, Dilate, and Segment, users can observe the effects of similar transformations on shapes. Suitable for middle school and above students and teachers.

GeoGebra Commands & Parameters

  1. Polygon(A, B, C) → Preimage, c, a, b
  2. Dilate(A, Scale, Center) → A'
  3. Dilate(B, Scale, Center) → B'
  4. Dilate(C, Scale, Center) → C'
  5. Polygon(A', B', C') → Image, c', a', b'
  6. Segment(Center, A) → d
  7. Segment(Center, B) → e
  8. Segment(Center, C) → f
  9. Segment(Center, A') → g
  10. Segment(Center, C') → h
  11. Segment(Center, B') → i
