Students use constructions to explore geometric shapes and properties.
Students can study and make conjectures about geometric shapes without having to draw them. The software includes a full complement of transformations including translation, rotation, reflection, and inversions. A function feature allows the user to define any set of constructions that may then be executed on a given shape. Libraries of functions can be developed and saved.
