How to Construct an Equilateral Triangle
Students will construct an equilateral triangle given step by step instructions and a visual aid.
Open a blank Geogebra page and use this applet to assist you with this task:
1) Draw a circle with center A and through point B.
2) Draw a circle with center point B and through point A.
3) Mark point C as one of the intersections of the two circles.
4) Connect points A, B, and C to form the equilateral triangle.
5) Drag any point of the triangle to check for consistency, what do you find?
