FunctionGeometric Construction
This example illustrates the addition law of exponents. It involves the core mathematical concept of exponentiation. Using GeoGebra commands such as Random, Textfield, Polygon, and Intersect, the example constructs geometric representations of the addition law of exponents. Suitable for middle school and above students to learn the basic properties of exponentiation.

GeoGebra Commands & Parameters

  1. Random(1, 20) → a
  2. Random(1, 20) → b
  3. Random(1, 20) → c
  4. Textfield(p) → InputBox1
  5. Textfield(q) → InputBox2
  6. Polygon(B, C, D, A) → poly1, b_1, c_1, d_1, a_1
  7. Intersect(b_1, c_1) → G
  8. Intersect(b_1, a_1) → H
  9. Polygon(E, F, G, H) → poly2, e_1, f, g, h
