SequenceGeometric Construction
This example demonstrates the process of adding negative numbers. Key mathematical concepts include negative number addition. Using GeoGebra commands such as Segment and Sequence, it dynamically shows the result of adding negative numbers. Suitable for high-grade elementary or junior high school students.

GeoGebra Commands & Parameters

  1. Segment((x(A), 0), (x(A), 2)) → f
  2. Sequence(Vector[(x(A) + i, 2), (x(A) + i + 1, 2)], i, 0, b - 1, 1) → list1
  3. Sequence(Vector[(x(A) + i, 2), (x(A) + i - 1, 2)], i, b + 1, 0, 1) → list2
  4. Sequence(Vector[(x(A) - i, 2), (x(A) - i - 1, 2)], i, 0, b - 1, 1) → list3
  5. Sequence(Vector[(x(A) - i, 2), (x(A) - i + 1, 2)], i, b + 1, 0, 1) → list4

AI Drawing Prompt Reference

Draw a number line starting from point A, and draw a segment of length 2 to the right to represent the positive part. Then, draw a sequence of b-1 segments of length 1 to the right from point A to represent positive addition. Next, draw another sequence of b-1 segments of length 1 to the left from point A to represent negative addition. Finally, draw two sequences of b segments of length 1, one to the left and one to the right from point A, to represent positive and negative additions.
