Z06 Hoehe
Höhe is German for height, here the height in a triangle.
It is an example of a computation that needs testing.
- The drawing is based on the Circles (points).
- The Lines are connecting the points to form a triangle.
- The foot point of the height is Circle D, a computed element.
- The caption of element D is hidden.
- Line h between points (Circles) A and D is the height.
- You can change the length of a Line or the position of a Circle.
- Computed values update automatically.
Note that 3D rotations are enabled for this drawing. This is not necessary for the triangle height drawing, but the relative simplicity of the drawing makes it a good candidate for testing out the view transformations.
You can always reset the drawing with Reset, through a button click or keyboard shortcut.
Switch off the support for 3D rotations.
Then think about a different drawing based on a triangle.
