Algebraic Curves in History and School
Fabián, Tomáš ; Kvasz, Ladislav (advisor) ; Jančařík, Antonín (referee)
TITLE: Agebraic Curves in History and School AUTHOR: Bc. Tomáš Fabián DEPARTMENT: The Department of mathematics and teaching of mathematics SUPERVISOR: prof. RNDr. Ladislav Kvasz, Dr. ABSTRACT: The thesis includes a series of exercises for senior high school students and the first year of university students. In these exercises, students will increase their knowledge about conics, especially how to draw them. Furthermore, students can learn about two unfamiliar curves: Conchoid and Quadratrix. All these curves are afterwards used for solving other problems - some Apollonius's problems, Three impossible constructions etc. Most of the construction is done in GeoGebra software. All the tasks are designed for students to learn how to work with this software. The subject discussed is put into historical context, and therefore the exercises are provided with historical commentary. The thesis also includes didactic notes, important or interesting solutions of exercises, possible issues, mistakes and another relevant notes. KEYWORDS: conic, circle, ellipse, parabola, hyperbole, conchoid, quadratrix, trisecting an angle, squaring the circle, rectification of the circle, doubling a cube, Apollonius's problem, GeoGebra

Constructions with imaginary elements in projective geometry
Řada, Jakub ; Krump, Lukáš (advisor) ; Zamboj, Michal (referee)
In this thesis we study construction with imaginary elements. First we define some basic construction with imaginary elements. Then we construct conic or we make some construction with conic. We build this thesis on examples. We take some assignment, where we discover and show, how to get five elements for conic. For example we show intersection of a real/complex line with a conic or we build some knowledge on examples, that we use in following constructions with imaginary assignment. 3

Conic sections as intersections of the cutting plane with the surface of a double cone
Košťáková, Sára ; Halas, Zdeněk (advisor) ; Moravcová, Vlasta (referee)
1 Abstract This bachelor thesis points out several blank spaces in the current tea- ching of conic sections. It concentrates mainly on the relation between the cutting of a conic surface and conic sections defined planimetrocally. Further on the thesis describes the origin of names for conic sections and adds many interesting details, like a cut of a cone by Dürer, relationship between an elliptical cut of a cylindrical surface and a sinusoid, and pointing out seve- ral chosen basic application of conic sections. A huge part of the thesis is dedicated to the characterization of specific uses of conic sections in archi- tecture and, mainly, in painting, and describing geometric reconstructions and analysis of specific art pieces with further commentary. 1

Geometry in architecture
BÁRTOVÁ, Michaela
The reader will understand the relationship between geometry and everyday life. Selected curves and bodyes are mathematically described. It is illustrated with photos of architectural elements. 3D models are made in GeoGebra and SketchUp. Blending theory and practice to help understand the geometry. It can be used for teaching math and geometry. This thesis discusses about the conic, selected technical curves and quardics.
