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

Paper folding in teaching mathematics
SCHINKOVÁ, Nikol
The bachelor thesis Paper folding in teaching mathematics deals with the usage of origami to solve mathematic problems. In the introduction the history of origami and basic contructions of composing, so called Huzita-Hatori axioms, are mentioned. In next part, the problem tasks which are unsolvable with Euclidean construction, the tangent to two parabolas, angle trisection and duplicating of the cube are solved and proven. In conclusion, procedures of contructions with proofs which can be used in teaching the mathematic, are given.

Paper folding
ŠOLÁ, Martina
The aim of the bachelor thesis called. Paper Folding is to show the utilization of this scientific discipline not only in solution to various geometric tasks, from ancient to contemporary, but also the incorporation into the teaching of mathematics as a useful tool to help understand the discussed schoolwork. Two typical problems of the ancient mathematics are solved and proved in this thesis - angle trisection and the duplication of the cube, construction of plane and spatial figures and selected problematic tasks.
