This example demonstrates the generation of a surface of revolution. Key mathematical concepts include the coordinate geometry of surfaces of revolution. Using the CurveCartesian and Surface commands, a surface of revolution can be constructed. Suitable for high school mathematics education or students learning coordinate geometry.

GeoGebra Commands & Parameters

  1. CurveCartesian(t, sqrt(t), 0, t, 0, 1) → a
  2. Surface(a, b, xAxis) → c
  3. CurveCartesian(d, (sqrt(d) * cos(n)), (sqrt(d) * sin(n)), n, 0, (2 * π)) → f
