This example demonstrates the beautiful square and rectangle spiral created by Charmion von Wiegand, involving concepts like dilation, hypergeometric distribution, cuboid, cone, tangent function, and means. It is constructed using GeoGebra commands such as Point, Polygon, and objects like r_1, a_1, r_0, a_0, A, B, etc. Suitable for high school and above learning geometric constructions and solid geometry.
