Analytic geometry of
points and straight lines
Define,
create and explore: points on a plane, midpoints of segments,
distances between points, straight lines, parallel lines,
perpendiculars, perpendicular to a line through a given point,
distance from a point to a line, etc. The following screenshots were
designed to meet the pedagogical approach needed
for teaching and learning of these topics:
Dynamic
movable tools, such as: Points,
Segments, Straight Lines, Parallels, Perpendiculars, Chords,
Perpendiculars from a point, Angles and Angle Bisectors.
Tracing while obtaining updated quantitative information for each
location, and the dynamic tools, including the relevant equations.
Quantitative
coordinate system (scales),
fully user
controlled by zooming in/out, dragging the axes and changing the
scales.
Copy
and Print: All
the content can be easily transferred to a Word®
document or to any presentation program such as Power Point®
or to be printed directly.
A Help
supplement to the software includes specified instructions for each
of the software's components.
Performance and
Features
The performance and features
provided by the software for guided visual dynamic study the
analytic geometry of points and straight lines, are illustrated by screenshots.
