This example demonstrates the calculation of the volume of a circular cone. Key mathematical concepts include the geometric properties of a cone and the volume formula. Using GeoGebra commands such as Intersect, Point, Sequence, and Polygon, a 3D model of the cone can be constructed. Suitable for high school mathematics education and students learning solid geometry.

GeoGebra Commands & Parameters

  1. Intersect(xAxis, yAxis) → A
  2. Point(xAxis) → B
  3. Sequence((cos(((2 * π) * t / a)), sin(((2 * π) * t / a))), t, 0, a - 1) → list1
  4. Polygon(list1) → poly1
  5. Pyramid(poly1, 1) → b, C, face1, face3, face2, edge1, edge2, edge3
