This applet demonstrates points and curves in the polar coordinate system. Key mathematical concepts include the conversion between polar and Cartesian coordinates. Using GeoGebra commands such as OrthogonalLine, Intersect, and Segment, the applet constructs points and curves in the polar coordinate system. Suitable for high school mathematics education and learning.

GeoGebra Commands & Parameters

  1. OrthogonalLine(A, xAxis) → a
  2. Intersect(a, xAxis) → B
  3. Segment(A, B) → b
  4. Intersect(xAxis, yAxis) → C
  5. Segment(C, B) → c
  6. Segment(C, A) → r
  7. Point(xAxis) → D
  8. Angle(D, C, A) → α
