Application Guide

Objects Created in the Geometry Application
Points, lines, and shapes created in the Geometry application are not analytic objects.
• Points that define these objects do not reside on the graph plane. Objects created
here are visible in both the Graphs and Geometry applications, but they are
unaffected by changes to the Graphs x,y axes.
• You cannot obtain the coordinates of an object’s points.
• You cannot display the equation of a geometric object created in the Geometry
application
Creating Points and Lines
As you create an object, a tool appears in the work area (for example, Segment ). To
cancel, press ESC. To enable automatic labeling of certain objects, see What You Must
Know in this chapter.
Creating a Point on the Work Area
1. From the PointsandLines menu, select Point. (In the Graphs application, click
Geometry > PointsandLines > Point.)
2. Click a location to create the point.
3. (Optional) Label the point.
4. To move a point, drag it.
