Abstract

AbstractThis paper describes an enhancement of GDI, a dynamic geometry environment that uses symbolic techniques for performing automatic proof and discovery in elementary geometry. We report a successful add–on that automatically discovers critical points in elementary extrema problems specified via diagrams. Based in classical one variable calculus, the new module, Optimus, is a step ahead in the cooperation between dynamic geometry and computer algebra systems. It can be used in technology rich environments for mathematics education, adding new calculus abilities to dynamic geometry software.KeywordsComputer Algebra SystemAutomate DiscoveryDynamic GeometryAutomate DeductionDynamic Geometry SoftwareThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
