Rolling of a Circle on a Straight Line
2019-11-10 01:10
This applet demonstrates a circle rolling along a straight line. Using GeoGebra tools like rotation and intersection, it illustrates the center's trajectory, the path of a point on the circle (cycloid), and the relation between rolling distance and arc length. Ideal for exploring geometric constructions, loci, and transformations.
