Introduction to GeoGebra
GeoGebra is a dynamic mathematics sofware that combines Geometry, Algebra, Calculus, and Spreadsheet in one package. It is compatible with major operating systems such as Windows, Mac, and Linux and runs in multiple hardware platforms including personal computers, tablets, and mobile phones.
Parts of GeoGebra
Toolbar - Use the tools in the toolbar to draw mathematical objects such as points, lines, and polygons.
Menu box - Use the Menu box if you want to save your file and manage GeoGebra Settings.
Style bar - Use the Style bar if you want to change the properties (e.g. colors, thickness, etc.) of mathematical objects.
Input bar - Use the input bar if you want to input equations for graphs, assign values to variables, or perform calculations.
Algebra view - The Algebra view displays the algebraic representation of mathematical objects such as coordinates, lengths, areas, and equations.
Graphics view - The Graphics is where you see the graphical representations of mathematical objects such as lines, polygons, and graphs.
Perspective - The Perspective menu lets you choose the different environment that you want to use. For example, the Geometry perspective hides the Algebra view, the Input box, the coordinate Axes and the grid.
