As a parent, helping your child with math homework can sometimes feel challenging, especially when dealing with complex problems in subjects like geometry.

My son, who is currently in 7th grade, recently came across a geometry problem that required finding when two rotating rays become perpendicular to each other.

At first, I wasn’t sure how to approach the problem myself, but I decided to turn to ChatGPT for some guidance.

ChatGPT helped me solve the math problem.

While solving the problem on paper was one thing, I realized that my son would benefit from seeing the rays rotate in real-time. I wanted to make the solution more engaging by visually demonstrating how the rays rotate and when they become perpendicular.

However, I encountered a challenge. I didn’t have much experience with animations in HTML or JavaScript, and I wasn’t sure where to start. So, I turned to ChatGPT once again to help me animate the solution.

This turned out to be a fantastic way to make the learning process more engaging and interactive. Here’s how we went from a challenging math problem to a visual solution!
