Rolling Circular Sector on a Ray
2019-02-15 09:56
This GeoGebra example demonstrates a circular sector rolling along a ray. Using commands like Point, Ray, CircleArc, Angle, and Rotate, it dynamically illustrates the geometric transformations of the sector on a straight line. It helps intuitively understand the composite motion of rotation and translation, suitable for teaching geometric transformations.
