This example demonstrates the process of constructing polygons using Compass 4, involving core mathematical concepts like linear functions, secant lines, fractal geometry, bar charts, and trapezoids. Key GeoGebra commands used include Sort, Element, If, diagBisect, diagCongruent, diagPerpendicular, opp1Parallel, opp2Parallel, diagBisectOnce, and various geometric objects like parallelogram, rectangle, rhombus, square, trapezoid, and triangle properties. It is suitable for high school students learning polygon construction and geometric properties.

GeoGebra Commands & Parameters

  1. Sort(triSides) → TriSidesSort
  2. Element(TriSidesSort, 1) → sideA
  3. Element(TriSidesSort, 2) → sideB
  4. Element(TriSidesSort, 3) → sideC
  5. If(square, "Square", isoTrapezoid, "Isosceles Trapezoid", trapezoid, "Trapezoid", isQuad, "Quadrilateral", " ", rectangle, "Rectangle", rhombus, "Rhombus", parallelogram, "Parallelogram", kite, "Kite") → quadText
  6. If(triEquilateral, "Equilateral", triIsosceles, "Isosceles", triScalene, "Scalene", " ") → triSideText
  7. If(triRight, "Right", triAcute, "Acute", triObtuse, "Obtuse", " ") → triAngleText
  8. If(isQuad, quadText, isTriangle, triText, "") → polyText
