This page is about a feature that is supported only in GeoGebra 5.0. |
- Octahedron[ <Point A>, <Point B>, <Direction> ]
<Direction> has to be
- a vector, a segment, a line, a ray orthogonal to ( AB);
or
- a polygon in a plan parallel to ( AB).
Creates an octahedron of which a edge is segment [AB]. The other vertices are univocally determined by the given direction.
- One face with edge [AB] in a plan orthogonal to vector/segment/line/ray given
or
- One face with edge [AB] in a plan parallel to that of the polygon.
