3. Abstract
This paper shows GeoGebra software is
helpful in teaching mathematics. GeoGebra is an
interactive geometry, algebra, statistics and
calculus application, intended for learning and
teaching mathematics and science from primary
school to university level. It can be used for lively
and problem oriented teaching and encourage
mathematical experiments and discoveries both in
classroom and at home. In this work we show the
history, development and uses of Geogebra.

4. GeoGebra = Geometry + Algebra

5. INTRODUCTION
 The software GeoGebra was created by Markus Hohenwarter
at the university of Salzburg in 2002. It was designed to
combine features of interactive geometry software. GeoGebra is
dynamic mathematics software for schools that joins geometry,
algebra and calculus. It was used to construct vectors, segments,
lines, polygons and conic sections as well as functions. The
equations and coordinates can be entered directly. Thus,
GeoGebra has the ability to deal with variables for numbers,
vectors and points. It finds derivatives and integrals of functions
and offers commands like root and vertex.

6. DEFAULT SCREEN OF GEOGEBRA

7.  The image above shows the default screen of
GeoGebra software. By default, the Algebra View and
Graphics View are displayed in the GeoGebra window.
 The Toolbar consists of a series of toolboxes
containing a collection of related tools. These tools are used
to create graphs in the Graphics View. At the same time the
corresponding coordinates and equations are displayed in the
Algebra View. Each View has its own Toolbar and therefore,
it gives access to a different set of tools.

8.  The Input Bar at the bottom of the GeoGebra window is
used to directly enter coordinates, equations, commands,
or functions. After pressing the Enter key, the algebraic
representation of these objects is shown in the Algebra
View while their graphical representation is displayed in
the Graphics View.
 GeoGebra offers a 3D Graphics View, a CAS View
to use GeoGebra (Computer Algebra System) for
symbolic computations, a Spreadsheet View to work with
data and statistical concepts, as well as a Probability
Calculator to calculate and graph probability distributions.
All Views of GeoGebra are linked dynamically.

13. Examples of Using GeoGebra
!! Visualizing
students can “see”
abstract concepts
!! Representations
students can make
connections
!! Experiments
students can discover
mathematics

14. CONCLUSION
 The benefits of introduction dynamic mathematics
software GeoGebra into teaching and learning process.
We conclude that all students, from any level of
mathematical knowledge can be encour­
aged to study
mathematics by using this applica­
tion. Current trends in
the teaching of science call for the use of visualization
techniques, and GeoGebra fits perfectly this trend. The use
of this software tools allows students to discover a wider
range of function types, and provides students to make the
connections between symbolic and visual representations.
