In collections Triangle Rotation Tessellation
This example demonstrates creating a triangle by rotating segments. Key math concepts include rotation and similar triangles. It uses GeoGebra commands like Point, Segment, and Rotate. Suitable for middle school and above students learning geometric transformations.

GeoGebra Commands & Parameters

  1. Point(Circle[A, 3]) → B
  2. Segment(A, B) → a
  3. Point(Circle[B, 3]) → C
  4. Segment(B, C) → b
  5. Point(Circle[C, 3]) → D
  6. Segment(C, D) → c
  7. Rotate(A, -120*°, B) → A'
  8. Rotate(B, -120*°, B) → B'
  9. Segment(A', B') → a'
  10. Rotate(C, 120*°, C) → C'
  11. Rotate(D, 120*°, C) → D'
  12. Segment(C', D') → c'
