What is GeoGebra

GeoGebra is dynamic mathematics software that joins geometry, algebra and calculus. It is developed for learning and teaching mathematics in schools by Markus Hohenwarter and an international team of programmers. This manual covers the current version (4.0). GeoGebra is backward compatible with all previous versions, despite small differences.

Install GeoGebra

The Installation Guide will help you with installation and system integration of GeoGebra in various operating systems. can work with.

Create dynamic constructions

Constructions in GeoGebra consist of mathematical objects of several types which can be created using tools or commands. The tutorials may guide you through your first constructions.

Objects

Tools

Commands

Expressions

Pre-defined Functions and Operators

Get to grips with GeoGebra's user interface

The main window is divided to views. By default Algebra View is displayed on the left side and Graphics View on the right. Above these views there is a Menubar and Toolbar, underneath Navigation Bar can be placed. Many features of GeoGebra can be accessed via Keyboard Shortcuts. GeoGebra also includes accessibility features such as Virtual Keyboard.

Main components

Menus

Views

Dialogs

Publish your work

When the construction is finished, you can

save it in GeoGebra's file format
create HTML Dynamic Worksheet via Java applets or HTML5
print the construction, possibly with Construction Protocol
export as image (PNG, SVG, PDF, EPS, EMF) or to LaTeX and Asymptote.
get the applet in a self-contained string suitable for Google Sites, Mediawiki or Blogger – no file upload needed
upload the construction to GeoGebra
