This example demonstrates the geometric construction of a parabola. It involves core mathematical concepts such as coordinate geometry, locus, and tangent lines. Key GeoGebra commands and objects used in the construction include Line, Point, OrthogonalLine, LineBisector, Intersect, and Locus. It is suitable for high school and above students studying coordinate geometry and function graphing.

GeoGebra Commands & Parameters

  1. Line(B, C) → a
  2. Point(a) → D
  3. OrthogonalLine(D, a) → b
  4. LineBisector(A, D) → c
  5. LineBisector(D, A) → d
  6. Intersect(b, c) → E
  7. Locus(E, D) → loc1
