Solid Geometry
This example demonstrates the net of a cone, involving the surface area calculation of a cone. Using GeoGebra commands such as Point, Circle, Intersect, Vector, Translate, etc., the geometric construction of a cone is visually illustrated. Suitable for students at junior high school level and above learning solid geometry.

AI Drawing Prompt Reference

Draw the net of a cone, including the base circle, side surface, and vertex. Start by drawing a circle, then take two points on the circle as the endpoints of the base circle's diameter. Draw an ellipse, and use translation and rotation to generate key points and segments for the net. Finally, connect these points to form the various parts of the net.
