① This example demonstrates a flower-like 3D surface generated from triangle-related geometric elements (medians, distances, segments), whose shape evolves dynamically with parameter changes. ② Core mathematical concepts include scalene triangles, median lines, distance metrics, parametric surfaces, and optimization problems, incorporating ideas of similar triangles and variance. ③ Construction highlights: from the summary, the GeoGebra commands Surface, Distance, and Segment are used; objects include points O, p, q, segments m, a, c, b, plus auxiliary items texte1, images image1/image2, points A, B, m1, and function f, enabling shape optimization through parameter adjustments. ④ Suitable for high school to undergraduate mathematics education, this serves as a 3D visualization tool for exploring geometry-algebra connections, mathematical modeling, or computer-aided geometric design.

AI Drawing Prompt Reference

Create a dynamic 3D flower-like surface driven by triangle-related geometric elements such as medians, distances, and segments. The shape consists of two main petal-like surfaces: one generated by a parametric equation with two angular parameters creating undulating petals, and another with spiral layers controlled by rotation and scaling parameters. A line segment extends from the central point as an auxiliary structure. The overall form changes with parameter adjustments, altering petal density, size, and twist, suitable for visualizing geometry-algebra connections.
