This example demonstrates how to use GeoGebra to draw the trajectory of intersection points between a cosine curve and a cylinder. Key mathematical concepts include cylinder, cosine function, and locus. Commands used include Line, Point, Circle, Intersect, Locus, and LocusEquation. Suitable for high school mathematics education and learning.

GeoGebra Commands & Parameters

  1. Line(B, C) → a
  2. Point(a) → D
  3. Line(D, A) → b
  4. Circle(D, Segment[E, F]) → c
  5. Intersect(c, b, 2) → G
  6. Locus(G, D) → loc1
  7. LocusEquation(G, D) → d
