Bradley Graeme Welch; Juan Carlos Ponce Campuzano – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2025
In this paper, we explore how the typical second year undergraduate topic of matrix diagonalisation can be applied to solve a geometric problem which arises frequently in Vector Calculus: to find the curve of intersection of a plane and a surface. We use GeoGebra, which offers a cost-free and dynamic interface, to explore a specific variant of…
