Geometric Construction and Locus of a Parabola
2016-01-08 08:31
This applet demonstrates the geometric construction and locus generation of a parabola. By utilizing points, orthogonal lines, angle bisectors, intersections, circles, and loci, it visually illustrates the geometric property that the distance from any point on the parabola to the focus equals its distance to the directrix. Ideal for teaching and exploring analytic geometry and conic sections.
