This example demonstrates how to use GeoGebra to visualize the factors of numbers. Key mathematical concepts include factorization. Commands used include: Textfield, DivisorsList, Factors, Sequence. Suitable for middle school and above students learning number theory.

GeoGebra Commands & Parameters

  1. Textfield(n) → InputBox1
  2. DivisorsList(n) → L_1
  3. Factors(n) →
  4. Sequence(Circle[(0, 0), (10 * j / Length[L_1])], j, 1, Length[L_1]) → L_3
  5. Sequence(Sequence[Segment[(((10 / Length[L_1] * (j - 1)) * cos(π / 2 + (((2 * π) * i) + a) / Element[L_1, j])), ((10 / Length[L_1] * (j - 1)) * sin(π / 2 + (((2 * π) * i) + a) / Element[L_1, j]))), (((10 / Length[L_1] * j) * cos(π / 2 + (((2 * π) * i) + a) / Element[L_1, j])), ((10 / Length[L_1] * j) * sin(π / 2 + (((2 * π) * i) + a) / Element[L_1, j])))], i, 1, Element[L_1, j]], j, 2, Length[L_1]) → L_2
