Parallel

Tap on a point (P) and press E. Tap on a line (L) and

 

press E. A new line is draw parallel to L and passing

 

through P.

Perpendicular

Tap on a point (P) and press E. Tap on a line (L) and

 

press E. A new line is draw perpendicular to L and

 

passing through P.

Tangent

Tap on a curve (C) and press E. Tap on a point (P) and

 

press E. If the point (P) is on the curve (C), then a single

 

tangent is drawn. If the point (P) is not on the curve (C), then

 

zero or more tangents may be drawn.

Median

Tap on a point (A) and press E. Tap on a segment and

 

press E. A line is drawn through the point (A) and the

 

midpoint of the segment.

Altitude

Tap on a point (A) and press E. Tap on a segment and

 

press E. A line is drawn through the point (A)

 

perpendicular to the segment (or its extension).

Polygon

The Polygon menu provides tools for drawing various

 

polygons.

Triangle

Tap at each vertex, pressing Eafter each tap.

 

Keyboard shortcut: n

Quadrilateral

Tap at each vertex, pressing Eafter each tap.

Ngon

 

Polygon5

Produces a pentagon. Tap at each vertex, pressing E

 

after each tap.

Polygon6

Produces a hexagon. Tap at each vertex, pressing E

 

after each tap.

Hexagon

Produces a regular hexagon (that is, one with sides of equal

 

length and angles of equal measure). Tap on a point and

 

press E. Tap on a second point to define the length of

 

one side of the regular hexagon and press E. The other
