This example demonstrates how to explore the maximums and minimums of functions using GeoGebra. Key mathematical concepts include functions, derivatives, and extrema. By drawing function graphs, adding points, and sliders, users can intuitively understand the concept of extrema. Suitable for high school mathematics education and learning.

GeoGebra Commands & Parameters

  1. Function(2 * x + 3, -3, 1) → f
  2. Point(f) → A
  3. Function((2 * x + 3) * (x - 1) * (x + 3) / ((x - 1) * (x + 3)), -3, 1) → g
  4. Point(g) → D
  5. Function(x^(2) - 2, -1, 2) → h
  6. Function((x^(2) - 2) * x * (x - 2) / (x * (x - 2)), -1, 2) → i
  7. Point(i) → J
  8. Function(2 + 1 / (x - 2), -2, 5) → j
  9. Point(j) → I
  10. Point(k) → Q
  11. Point(h) → R

AI Drawing Prompt Reference

Draw the graph of the function y=2x+3 and find its vertex Q. Then draw the graph of the function y=(2x+3)(x-1)(x+3)/(x-1)(x+3) and find its vertex D. Next, draw the graph of the function y=x^2-2 and find its vertex R. Finally, draw the graph of the function y=2+1/(x-2) and find its vertex I.
