PolygonCoordinate GeometryTransformation
In collections Rotations
This example allows students to explore rotations of a figure in the coordinate plane. Key mathematical concepts include rotation, angle, and coordinate geometry. Using GeoGebra commands such as Polygon, Intersect, Rotate, Segment, and Angle, students can dynamically observe and understand the properties of rotation transformations. Suitable for middle school and above students for geometric construction and exploration.

GeoGebra Commands & Parameters

  1. Polygon(A, B, C) → poly1, c, a_1, b
  2. Intersect(xAxis, yAxis) → O
  3. Rotate(A, a, O) → A'
  4. Rotate(B, a, O) → B'
  5. Rotate(C, a, O) → C'
  6. Polygon(A', B', C') → poly1', c', a', b'
  7. Segment(A, O) → d
  8. Segment(O, A') → e
  9. Angle(A, O, A') → α
