In collections Geom. & Alg.: Quadratics
This example demonstrates how to find the zeros of a quadratic function by sliding points along the x-axis. Key mathematical concepts include the properties of quadratic functions and their zeros. GeoGebra commands used include Random, Text, and Point. Suitable for high school math education and learning.

GeoGebra Commands & Parameters

  1. Random(-8, 2) → d
  2. Random(-8, 8) → k
  3. Random(1, 6) → te
  4. Text(j) → text1
  5. Point(xAxis) → LeftX
  6. Point(xAxis) → RightX
  7. Text(Score) → text3
  8. Text(try) → text6

AI Drawing Prompt Reference

Draw a quadratic function and find its zeros. First, randomly select two points on the x-axis as the zeros of the quadratic function, then construct the quadratic function based on these points. Set up a scoreboard to show the number of attempts. Randomly choose a point on the x-axis as the vertex of the quadratic function, and adjust its position to change the direction and position of the function.
