Abstract

The Geometer's Sketchpad is a software widely used in mathematics teaching in primary and secondary schools of China. This paper studies the methods of coloring graphics images through this software. Through examples, three methods of coloring basic graphs are analyzed, including the “internal” coloring through construction, the “indirect” coloring through construction and coloring with “functions”.

Keywords

The geometer's sketchpad, Line, Circle, Structure, Coloring
