2017-12-30 04:24
This GeoGebra example demonstrates the rolling motion of a Reuleaux triangle (a curve of constant width) on an equilateral triangle with adjustable side length. Using a slider to control the triangle's dimensions, users can observe the Reuleaux rotor's rolling trajectory and orientation inside the triangle. The construction employs CircumcircleArc, Rotate, Translate, and Sequence commands to dynam
