Creating and manipulating axes

When the Graphs & Geometry application is first added to a page, a set
of Cartesian axes displays by default.
You can change the appearance of your axes in the following ways:
1. Adjust the length of the axes:
• When using Plane Geometry mode with Show Analytic Window,
– Select an axis and retype the domain or range labels.
– Select an axis and drag to increase or decrease the numbers
on the scale and tic mark spacing.
The aspect ratio of the axes is retained. To modify the scale of only
one axis, press the Shift key as you adjust the value or drag the line.

Graph Area
• Define and graph
functions to:
– Graph
functions of
the form f (x)
– Create scatter
plots
– Graph polar
equations
– Graph
parametric
functions
• Construct analytic
objects
• Label equations
• Identify coordinates
for discrete points
Analytic constructions
must remain in the
analytic area.
Plane Geometry Area
• Construct Euclidean
objects
• Create
transformations
• Determine
measurements (e.g.,
length, angle, area)
Geometric
constructions can be
moved into the analytic
area but remain
geometric in nature.
