This example demonstrates how to construct a parabola using GeoGebra. Key mathematical concepts include coordinate geometry and locus. Using commands such as Line, Point, OrthogonalLine, LineBisector, Intersect, and Locus, a parabola can be constructed. Suitable for high school mathematics education and learning.

GeoGebra Commands & Parameters

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