This example demonstrates geometric relationships formed by two squares and two triangles, involving concepts like geometric transformations, ellipses, arithmetic mean, hypothesis testing, and surface area. Construction highlights GeoGebra commands: Intersect, Point, Polygon, If, Translate. Suitable for high school and above learners exploring geometric transformations and spatial relations.

GeoGebra Commands & Parameters

  1. Intersect(xAxis, yAxis) → A
  2. Point(xAxis) → B
  3. Polygon(A, B, 4) → poly1, f, g, h, i, C, D
  4. Polygon(C, E, 4) → poly2, j, k, l, m, F, G
  5. Polygon(C, D, G) → poly3, g_1, c, d
  6. Polygon(C, B, E) → poly4, e, c_1, b
  7. If(0 ≤ a < 1, Polygon[Rotate[C, (((-π)) / 2 * (a - 0)), C], Rotate[D, (((-π)) / 2 * (a - 0)), C], Rotate[G, (((-π)) / 2 * (a - 0)), C]], Polygon[Rotate[C, ((-π)) / 2, C], Rotate[D, ((-π)) / 2, C], Rotate[G, ((-π)) / 2, C]]) → poly5
  8. If(1 ≤ a ≤ 2, Dilate[C, 2 - a, B], Dilate[C, 0, C]) → H
  9. Translate(H, Vector[B, C]) → H'
  10. Polygon(E, H, H') → poly6, h', e_1, h_1
