This example demonstrates the calculation of the volume of a solid of revolution. The core mathematical concepts involved are integration in calculus. Using GeoGebra commands such as Surface, Point, Segment, and Circle, the example constructs a solid of revolution and calculates its volume. Suitable for high school students and teachers.

GeoGebra Commands & Parameters

  1. Surface(g, n, xAxis) → a
  2. Surface(h, n_1, i) → b
  3. Point(i) → A
  4. Point(i) → B
  5. Segment(A, B) → j
  6. Point(j) → C
  7. Point(h) → E
  8. Segment(C, E) → k
  9. Point(g) → F
  10. Point(xAxis) → G
  11. Circle(xAxis, F) → e
