This example demonstrates how to use GeoGebra to create geometric tile patterns for the Museo de Onda. The core mathematical concepts include geometric symmetry, properties of circles, and mirror transformations. Construction details: using Line, Circle, and CircleArc commands for basic shapes; applying Mirror command for symmetric patterns; determining key points through Intersect, OrthogonalLine, and LineBisector; constructing auxiliary lines with Ray. This example is suitable for secondary school mathematics courses on geometric construction and plane symmetry, serving as a practical case for integrating technology with mathematics education.

AI Drawing Prompt Reference
Draw a symmetric tile pattern: start with a horizontal baseline and two equally spaced points on it as centers for two equal circles that intersect the baseline. Construct perpendiculars through these centers, pick a point on one perpendicular, draw a line through it perpendicular to that, intersecting the other perpendicular to get two new centers for two more equal circles. Connect these new centers with a perpendicular bisector, draw rays from one baseline endpoint to intersect circles, and use an arc connecting the baseline endpoints. Finally, mirror a key point across the bisector to complete the symmetric geometric design.
