Motion by Transformation 1: Basic Motions

The Cabri 3D files here illustrate some basic motions made possible using the Transformation tools. Drag the large red points to show the motion, then choose the demo or the file to download to see how the motion was created (the demo How constructed (related file moving Claude1)will show you some features of Cabri 3D and some strategies that will help you to work how a file is constructed). You may also select a demo giving more detail of the tool, or a link leading to further possibilities (note that much of this is not yet implemented).
