This example demonstrates the section of a right circular cone. Key mathematical concepts include cones, conic sections, solid geometry, and coordinate geometry. Using GeoGebra commands such as Intersect, Point, and Cone, the section of the cone can be constructed. Suitable for high school mathematics education and learning.

GeoGebra Commands & Parameters

  1. Intersect(yAxis, xAxis) → A
  2. Point(zAxis) → B
  3. Cone(A, B, 2) → cone, c, b
  4. IntersectPath(plane, cone) → section
  5. Corner(section) → C, D
  6. Axes(section) → f, g
  7. Intersect(g, section) → E, F
  8. Intersect(f, section) → G, H
  9. IntersectPath(plane, xOyPlane) → trace
