Abstract

         The geometric dissection is of cutting one or more geometric figures into pieces that can be rearranged to form the other figures. The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate the dynamic process of constructing, cutting and rearranging from figures to figures. The content includes the dissection between plane figures, special types of hinged dissections, dissecting solids and dissecting the surfaces of solids. With the help of Cabri Geometry II , a tool for geometric constructions, we may experience these dissections ourselves, moving, adjusting and animating pieces to pieces under the dynamic circuses. This paper thus provides such circuses, or in other words, provides a different aspect of viewing geometric dissections. ¡@
