Geometry Application Overview
8-1 Geometry Application Overview
The Geometry application provides you with the following capabilities.
• The [Draw] menu provides commands for drawing points, lines, polygons, regular polygons,
circles, ellipses, and other geometric figures. You can also draw functions. Once drawn, a
figure can be moved or edited as required. See “Using the Draw Menu” on page 8-2-1 for
more information about this menu.
• The [Draw] menu also includes a [Construct] submenu (page 8-2-12) and a [Special
Shape] submenu (page 8-2-9). You can use items in the [Construct] submenu to add a
midpoint, draw a perpendicular bisector from a given point, create other geometric
constructions and even test geometric theorems. The [Special Shape] submenu allows you
to draw special figures, such as parallelograms, rectangles, kites and many others.
