This example demonstrates how to create a parabola through paper folding. Key mathematical concepts include the geometric properties of parabolas. GeoGebra commands used include Point, LineBisector, OrthogonalLine, Intersect, and Locus. Suitable for high school mathematics education and learning.

GeoGebra Commands & Parameters

  1. Point(f) → B
  2. LineBisector(A, B) → g
  3. OrthogonalLine(B, f) → h
  4. Intersect(g, h) → C
  5. Intersect(g, yAxis) → D
  6. Locus(C, B) → loc1
