Along the Traces of the Conic Sections

Based on a geometry problem by Ivan Salabashev we demonstrate an exploratory process leading to conic sections as a locus of points. We work for the purpose with the GeoGebra dynamic software making use of different objects’ representations for explorations related with conic sections.

Development and Implementation of NURBS Models of Quadratic Curves and Surfaces

This article goes into the development of NURBS models of quadratic curves and surfaces. Curves and surfaces which could be represented by one general equation (one for the curves and one for the surfaces) are addressed. The research examines the curves: ellipse, parabola and hyperbola, the surfaces: ellipsoid, paraboloid, hyperboloid, double hyperboloid, hyperbolic paraboloid and cone, and the cylinders: elliptic, parabolic and hyperbolic. Many real objects which have to be modeled in 3D applications possess specific features. Because of this these geometric objects have been chosen. Using the NURBS models presented here, specialized software modules (plug-ins) have been developed for a 3D graphic system. An analysis of their implementation and the primitives they create has been performed.

Visualization of Problems’ Solution

Джурджица Такачи - В доклада се разглеждат дидактически подходи за решаване на задачи, упражнения и доказване на теореми с използване на динамичен софтуер, по-специално – с вече широко разпространената система GeoGebra. Въз основа на концепция-та на Пойа се анализира използването на GeoGebra като когнитивно средство за решаване на задачи и за обсъждане на техни възможни обобщения.
