GeoGebra Essentials 9 – Texts and Variables

This is the eighth tutorial in the GeoGebra Essentials Series. If you are not familiar with GeoGebra, you may want to read the Introduction to GeoGebra post and the earlier tutorials in this series.

In the tutorial below, menu commands, located in the menu bar, are in brown bold text, and submenus are denoted by the > symbol. For example, Options>Labeling> New Points Only means, click the Options menu, choose Labeling from the list, then select New Points Only. The name of the tools are colored orange. For example, New Point means the new point tool.

In this tutorial, we  learn how to use the Text tool of GeoGebra. We will use a previous tutorial on how to use sliders, and then, learn how to the text tool and how concatenate text and variables. The output of this tutorial can be viewed here.

In doing the tutorial, we are going to learn the following:

  • Understand the difference between text and variables in GeoGebra
  • Concatenate text and variables  » Read more

GeoGebra Basic Construction 7 – Rhombus

This is the seventh tutorial in the GeoGebra Basic Construction Series. If you are not familiar with GeoGebra, you may want to read the Introduction to GeoGebra post and prior tutorials in the series. They contain the pre-requisites of this tutorial.

In the tutorial below, menu commands, located in the menu bar, are in green bold text, and submenus are denoted by the > symbol. For example, Options>Labeling> New Points Only means, click the Options menu, choose Labeling from the list, then select New Points Only. The tool texts are colored orange. For example, New Point means the new point tool.

In this tutorial, we construct a rhombus using a circle. Although, we have already discussed how to construct a rhombus,  the method used in this  construction is different.  In this tutorial, we construct a rhombus mimicking compass and straightedge construction.
