geom3d[GlideReflection] - find the glide-reflection of a geometric object
Calling Sequence
GlideReflection(Q, P, p, AB)
Parameters
Q
-
the name of the object to be created
P
geometric object
p
plane
AB
directed segment
Description
A glide-reflection is the product of a reflection in a plane p and a translation of directed segment AB, where AB lies in the plane.
For a detailed description of Q (the object created), use the routine detail (i.e., detail(Q))
The command with(geom3d,GlideReflection) allows the use of the abbreviated form of this command.
Examples
Define the plane oxz
Define triangle ABC
Apply glide-reflection on triangle ABC
