This example demonstrates how to analyze the area above and below the x-axis using function graphs. Key mathematical concepts include functions, integrals, and intervals. Using GeoGebra commands such as Integral and Intersect, users can dynamically adjust function parameters to observe area changes. Suitable for high school mathematics education and learning.
