Real World Voronoi Diagrams
Click the Voronoi Diagrams link above and read the applications section. Which application was suprising or interesting to you?
Does the Voronoi Diagram match closely with the actual districts? Where does it differ the most? Which district has the most neighbors?
The points in the set are called the seeds. Where should the seeds be placed in this diagram? On the location of the schools? the town centers? Move the seeds around to see how the regions change.
Use the midpoint tool on AB. What do you notice?
Plot a point anywhere on the Perpendicular Bisector. Measure its distance from A and from B. Drag the point up and down the line. What do you notice?
Look at the drawing of perpendicular lines below. Drag the large points around. What do you notice about the relationship between the slopes?
