Abstract

The following note combines aspects of mathematics (geometry), history, heuristics (problem�solving), dynamic geometry software and pedagogy. Although it may go a bit beyond the curriculum at school, the mathematics and arguments stay elementary. In the second part it should be a vivid demonstration that simply trying things and seeing what happens – i.e., fostering the process of ‘doing mathematics’ – can lead to nice results that can also be useful for teaching situations.
