Still don’t know how to use geometric sketchpad to make honeycomb graphics? This section focuses on the detailed operation of using the geometric sketchpad to create honeycomb graphics. For those who don’t know yet, please follow the editor to learn. I hope it will be helpful to you.

​​ 1.Construct the line segment and rotate it. Draw a line segment AB. Double-click point A, which is marked as the center of rotation. Select line segment AB and point B, select the "Transform" - "Rotate" command, and set the rotation angle to 60 degrees. Just click the "Rotate" button. Change the label of point B’ to C.

​ ​ 4. Use iteration to construct honeycomb graphics. Select points A and B and select the "Transform" - "Iterate" command. Click A, D in sequence. Then select the "Add New Mapping" command in "Structure" and click points B and D. Then select the "Add New Mapping" command in "Structure" and click points C and D. Select the Final Iteration command in Display. The number of iterations can be increased or decreased in Display. Just click the "Iterate" button. As shown in the picture.
