This example demonstrates the net of a cylinder. It involves the geometric properties and unfolding method of a cylinder. Using GeoGebra commands such as Point, Circle, Cylinder, Intersect, Line, etc., the side unfolding process of the cylinder can be dynamically displayed. Suitable for students at junior high school level and above to learn solid geometry.

AI Drawing Prompt Reference

Draw the net of a cylinder, showing how the side unfolds into a rectangle. Start with two perpendicular axes, then draw a circle using one axis point as the center to create the cylinder. Unfold the side of the cylinder into a rectangle and dynamically display the unfolding process. Finally, combine the unfolded rectangle and the circular base to form the complete net of the cylinder.
