System Requirement

To record this tutorial, I am using;
  • Ubuntu Linux OS version 18.04
  • GeoGebra version 5.0660.0-d
  • TeXworks version 0.6.3

The commands shown in this tutorial will work in all 5.0x versions of GeoGebra.

Slide Number 4

Pre-requisites

https://spoken-tutorial.org

To practise this tutorial,

You should have full version of TeXworks installed on your system.

You should be familiar with GeoGebra and LaTeX.


For the prerequisite GeoGebra and LaTeX tutorials please visit this website.

Slide Number 5

Code Files

The files used in this tutorial are provided in the Code files link.

Please download and extract the files.

Make a copy and use them for practising.

Cursor on the GeoGebra window. I have opened a new GeoGebra window.
Only Narration.


Open and show the scripting-commands.txt file.

Let us begin with scripting in GeoGebra.


The commands used in this tutorial are available in scripting-commands.txt file.


This file is given in the Codes Files for the learners to use.

For beginners the Input bar is at the bottom.

Shown as Input:

In this tutorial we will use the Input bar to draw various objects.
Type in Input bar:

A= (2,4) >> Press Enter.


Cursor near Point A.

In the Input bar type A= (2, 4) and press Enter.


Point A is marked in the Graphics view at (2,4).

Cursor near point A. Now we will use script commands to change the coordinates of point A.
Type in the input bar:


SetCoords(A, x(A)+1, y(A)-1)


Point to the code in the Input bar.

In the input bar type the following command.

This code moves the x coordinate of A by one up and y coordinate by one down.


Press Enter to execute the command.

Point to A(3,3) The coordinates of point A now are (3,3).
In the Input bar click the up, down arrow keys >>

select the command from the list.


Cursor near point A in the Graphics view.

Let us execute the same command once again.


The coordinates of point A change to (4,2).

Type in the input bar >>

Circle(A, 3) >>

Press Enter.


Point to circle c.


Drag the Algebra view boundary.

Now let us draw a circle using point A.


Type this command in the input bar and press Enter.


A circle with centre A and radius 3 cm is drawn.


Drag the boundary to see the equation clearly.

Point to the circle c. Let’s now change the colour of circle c dynamically.
Type in input bar:

SetDynamicColor[c, Red, Green, Blue] >>

Press Enter.


Point to the dialog box.

Type this command in the input bar and press Enter.


Create Sliders dialog box appears.

Click the Create Sliders button.

Point to the sliders.

Click the Create Sliders button.


Three sliders Red, Green, and Blue are created.

Drag sliders Red, Blue and Green back and forth. Now drag the sliders to see the circle in various combinations of colours.
Point to c. Now let’s create a random circle using a random point B.
Create a random point B, type in the input bar:


B= (RandomBetween[-2, 2], RandomBetween[-2, 2])

Point to Point B.

In the Input bar type the following command and press Enter.

Point B is drawn.

Type in input bar:


r=RandomBetween[0,5]


Point to r value in the Algebra view.

Now let’s create radius r of circle c randomly using this command.


Type in input bar:


c= Circle[B,r]


Drag the sliders Red, Blue and Green.


To get a random circle c, type this command.


Drag the sliders to see the circle in different colours.


Press Ctrl + R to move the circle randomly in the Graphics view.


Point to the circle.

Press Ctrl and R keys to move the circle randomly in the Graphics view.


Notice the change in the radius of the circle as it moves.


Press Ctrl and A keys to select and

Press Delete Key to delete.

Let us select all the objects and delete them.


Only Narration. Next let's create a randomly generated parabola.


Type in the input bar:

A = (RandomBetween[-3,3],RandomBetween[-3,3])

Press Enter.

To create a random parabola let’s create a random point A.


Type the following command and press Enter.


Point to point A. Point A will be the vertex of the parabola.
Press Ctrl and R keys repeatedly. Press Ctrl and R keys repeatedly.

Observe that the coordinates of point A keep changing.

In the Input bar type:

f(x) = ( x + x(A) )^2 + y(A) and press Enter.


Point to x(A) and y(A) in the input bar.

In the Input bar type the following command.


Here x(A) and y(A) are the coordinates of point A in the equation.

Point to the parabola. Observe that, parabola opens upwards.
Point to the parabola. To make the parabola open downwards, we need to randomly generate +1 and -1.
In the input bar type:

n = RandomBetween[ 0 , 1 ] >> press Enter

Point to n value in the Algebra view.


Type:

a = If[ n == 1 , 1 , -1 ] >> Press Enter.


Point to the values of a and n in the Algebra view.

Type the following command and press Enter.


Here n is a number which is in between 0 and 1.


Type the following command.

Here a changes when n is equal to 1.


We can see the values of n and a only in the Algebra view.

press Ctrl + R keys repeatedly. Keep pressing Ctrl and R keys repeatedly.


Observe the changes in point A, a and n values and the parabola.

Double-click the function f(x) in the Algebra View.


Type a * before the function.


a * (x + x(A))² + y(A)


Point to the parabola.

Double-click on the function f(x) in the Algebra View.


Redefine text box appears.


Type a space asterisk(*) before the function and click OK button.


Observe that the parabola has opened downwards.

Press Ctrl and R keys repeatedly. Press Ctrl and R keys repeatedly to see the changes in the parabola.
Only Narration. Now we will see how to use IF commands to generate various functions.
Click on File >> New Window. For this we will open a new GeoGebra window.


Type IF in the input bar to show the list of IF commands. In general, the IF command is IF[Condition, Then, Else]
Select the Slider tool(tool is shown as a=2).

Click in the Graphics View.

In the Slider dialog box

Change name to n.

Change the Min value to 0 and Max value to 5.

Click the OK button.


Let’s first create a number slider n with Min value 0 and Max value 5.
Select the Move tool(tool shown as arrow). Click the Move tool to avoid accidental clicking of unnecessary objects.


Cursor on the Graphics view. Let us draw circles of two different radii using the IF command.


Type in the input bar:


IF[n<3, Circle[(0,0),1], circle[(2,0),4]] >>

Press Enter.


Point to the circle.

Type the following command and press Enter.


A circle with center at the origin (0,0) and radius 1 cm is drawn.

Drag the slider from n=0 to n=3.


Point the circle.

Now drag the slider from n is equal to zero to n is equal to three.


A new circle with center at (2,0) and radius 4 centimetres is drawn.

Drag the slider n=0 to n=5.

Point to the circle with different radius.

As we drag the slider from n=0 to n=5 the radius changes from 1 cm to 4 centimetres.


In the Algebra View

Click to select c >>

Press Delete key on the keyboard.

or

Click to select c >> and

Right-click on it >> select Delete option.

Now let’s delete circle c.
Only Narration. Next let us draw a segment and a circle in the same manner using the IF command.


Drag the slider to n=0. Let us drag the slider back to n=0.
Type in the input bar:


IF[n>2,Circle[(0,0),2], Segment((2,2), 3)] >>

Press Enter.


Point to the segment.

Type the following command and press Enter.


A segment parallel to x axis and at a distance of 2 cm is drawn.


Drag the slider from n=0 to n>2.


Point to the circle.


Point to the circle in Algebra view.

Now drag the slider from n=0 to n greater than 2 (n>2).


A circle with center at (0,0) and radius 2 cm is drawn.


Users may change the values to draw the circle with different dimensions.

Drag the slider n=0 to n=5.

Point to the segment and circle.

As we drag the slider from n=0 to n=5 the segment changes to a circle.
In the Algebra View

Click to select c >>

Press the Delete key on the keyboard.

Again let’s delete the circle c and retain the slider n.
Drag the slider to n=0. Let us drag the slider back to n=0.
Only Narration. Now we will use the IF command to show trigonometric functions.
Type in the input bar:


IF[n>2, sin(90-x),cos(x)] >> press Enter.


Point to the function in the Algebra view and Graphics view.

Type the following command and press Enter.


A cos(x) function is plotted.

Drag the slider n=0 to n=5.


Point to the function in the Algebra view and Graphics view.

As we drag the slider from n=0 to n=5,

function changes from cos(x) to sin(90-x).

In the Algebra View

Click to select function >> Press Delete key on the keyboard.

Let’s delete the function.
Type in the input bar:

IF[n>2, sin(90-x),tan(x)]

Similarly let us plot tan(x) and sin(90-x) functions.
Drag the slider n=0 to n=5.


Point to the function in the Algebra view and Graphics view.

As we drag the slider from n=0 to n=5,

function changes from tan(x) to sin(90-x).
