Creating 2-D Animations on HTML5 Canvas - proof of Pythagoras theorem

In this tutorial, you will find:

Finding a good book to master HTML5 can be very challenging: there are so many around - most with eye-catching titles and very complex substance.
Therefore, Vivax Solutions strongly recommends Core HTML5 Canvas for those who really want to delve into HTML5.

Pythagorean Theorem / Pythagoras Theorem in a Circle

The vertex of the right-angled triangle moves along the circumference of the circle in such a way that its hypotenuse remains a diameter of the circle throughout.

You can see the verification of a2 + b2 = c2, throughout its movement, while proving the famous theorem.

 

The source code of the animation is as follows:

<script type = 'text/javascript' >
var canvas = document.getElementById('Canvas_Six');
var ctx= canvas.getContext('2d');
var x,y,i=0;
function draw(){
i=i+0.25;
if (i==360){i=0;}
var hor=140*Math.cos(i),ver=140*Math.sin(i);
x=200+hor; y=200+ver;
var a = Math.round(Math.pow((Math.pow(140-hor,2) + Math.pow(ver,2)),0.5));
var b = Math.round(Math.pow((Math.pow(140+hor,2) + Math.pow(ver,2)),0.5));
ctx.clearRect(0,0,400,400);
ctx.beginPath();
// Red circle
ctx.arc(200,200,140,0,2*Math.PI);
ctx.strokeStyle="red";
ctx.lineWidth=3;
ctx.stroke();
ctx.beginPath();
// green line
ctx.moveTo(60,200);
ctx.lineTo(x,y);
ctx.lineWidth=2;
ctx.strokeStyle="green";
ctx.stroke();
//yellow line
ctx.beginPath();
ctx.moveTo(340,200);
ctx.lineTo(x,y);
ctx.lineWidth=2;
ctx.strokeStyle="yellow";
ctx.stroke();
ctx.beginPath();
ctx.moveTo(60,200);
ctx.lineTo(340,200);
ctx.lineWidth=2;
ctx.strokeStyle="blue";
ctx.stroke();
ctx.beginPath();
ctx.font="20px verdana";
ctx.fillText('a = ' + a,20,335);
ctx.fillStyle="green";
ctx.fill();
ctx.beginPath();
ctx.font="20px verdana";
ctx.fillText('b = ' + b,20,360);
ctx.fillStyle="yellow";
ctx.fill();
/*ctx.beginPath();
ctx.font="20px verdana";
ctx.fillText('c = ' + 300,20,380);
ctx.fillStyle="blue";
ctx.fill();*/
}
window.setInterval('draw()',1000);

Amazon Best Seller

 

Everything is evolving; so is the layout of a text book. By uniquely presenting the rich contents of the book, the author has elevated positive user experience of reading a text book to a new level: the examples are easy to follow and rich in standard. Highly recommended for those who want to master JavaScript and JQuery.

Progressive Web Apps(PWA)


 

The significance of app stores is over; progressive web apps is the next big thing. They are just websites that makes the need of going through app stores and need of storing redundant. They work offline too. If you have a reasonable understanding of HTML, CSS and JavaScript, this is the book for you to learn in no time.

HTML5 Canvas Animations


 

David Geary, in this book, shows how to combine JavaScript and HTML5 Canvas to produce amazing animations; he has set aside a whole chapter to teach you the role of physics in animations. If you want an in-depth understanding about HTML5 Canvas animations, this is a must read.
