PolygonTransformationGeometric Construction
This example demonstrates geometric transformation centered at a point, known as dilation. It involves core math concepts like transformation, geometric construction, and proportional scaling. GeoGebra commands used include Polygon, Textfield, Dilate, and Ray for construction. Suitable for high school mathematics education to understand the properties and applications of transformations.

GeoGebra Commands & Parameters

  1. Polygon(A, B, C) → poly1, c, a, b
  2. Textfield(D) → InputBox1
  3. Dilate(A, k, D) → A'
  4. Dilate(B, k, D) → B'
  5. Dilate(C, k, D) → C'
  6. Polygon(A', B', C') → poly1', c', a', b'
  7. Ray(D, A) → f
