This example demonstrates the position and properties of a sphere in a 3D coordinate system interactively; involves core math concepts including sphere equations, coordinate geometry, conditional probability, binomial distribution, hypothesis testing; construction highlights use of GeoGebra commands like Intersect, Sphere, Circle, Tangent and objects A, a, B, C, D, c, E, F, d, G, H, e, f, g, h; suitable for high school and above students/teachers for teaching/exploring solid geometry, probability & statistics, and analytical geometry.
