This interactive applet helps students grasp the sign rules of integer multiplication by generating integer pairs and applying the rules. The core mathematical concepts include integer multiplication sign rules, symbolic computation, and sequence generation. The construction uses the Sequence command to create integer pairs, the If statement to determine sign outcomes, and Arc and text objects to display results. It is suitable for middle and high school mathematics teachers and students to understand abstract sign rules.

GeoGebra Commands & Parameters

  1. Arc((x - a / 2)^(2) = a / 2, (0, 0), (a, 0)) → c
  2. If(b < 0, Sequence[(-a * n, 0), n, 0, -b], Sequence[(a * n, 0), n, 0, b]) → lista3
  3. Sequence(Semicircle[Element[lista3, n], Element[lista3, n + 1]], n, 1, abs(b)) → lista1

AI Drawing Prompt Reference

Draw a graph showing integer pairs on a horizontal line. The sign of each pair is determined by multiplication rules: positive pairs on the left, negative pairs on the right. Connect adjacent pairs with arcs and add text labels next to each pair. Ensure the graph is clear and suitable for math teaching.
