This example demonstrates the construction of a pentagonal prism. It involves polygons, solid geometry, and geometric construction. Using GeoGebra commands such as Polygon and Prism, the various faces and edges of the pentagonal prism can be constructed. Suitable for students at the junior high school level and above.

GeoGebra Commands & Parameters

  1. Intersect(xAxis, yAxis) → A
  2. Point(yAxis) → B
  3. Polygon(A, B, 5) → poly1, f, g, h, i, j, C, D, E
  4. Prism(poly1, 4) → a, F, faceAEJF, faceFGHIJ, edgeAF, edgeBG, edgeCH, edgeDI, edgeEJ, edgeFG, edgeGH, edgeHI, G, edgeIJ, edgeFJ, H, I, J, faceABGF, faceBCHG, faceCDIH, faceDEJI
  5. Intersect(h, i) → K
  6. Intersect(g, h) → L
  7. Intersect(i, j) → M
