① This example demonstrates how to calculate the volume of a square pyramid using GeoGebra. ② The core mathematical concepts include the area calculation of a polygonal base, the solid geometry volume formula V = (1/3)·Base Area·Height, and the definition of points in coordinate geometry. ③ In the construction, the Point command defines vertices A, B, C, D, E, F; Midpoint finds the base center; Polygon creates the base shape; Segment connects relevant points; the base area LuasAlas is computed; and text objects text1–text5 display intermediate results, finally yielding the volume. ④ Suitable for high school mathematics teaching in geometry and solid geometry, as well as introductory geometry modeling courses for university students, this example provides an intuitive and dynamic tool for learning.
