four vertices are automatically calculated and the regular

 

hexagon is drawn.

Special

 

Eq. triangle

Produces an equilateral triangle. Tap at one vertex and press

 

E. Tap at another vertex and press E. The

 

location of the third vertex is automatically calculated and the

 

triangle is drawn.

Square

Tap at one vertex and press E. Tap at another vertex

 

and press E. The location of the third and fourth

 

vertices are automatically calculated and the square is drawn.

Parallelogram

Tap at one vertex and press E. Tap at another vertex

 

and press E. Tap at a third vertex and press E.

 

The location of the fourth vertex is automatically calculated

 

and the parallelogram is drawn.

Curve

 

Circle

Tap at the center of the circle and press E. Tap at a

 

point on the circumference and press E. A circle is

 

drawn about the center point with a radius equal to the

 

distance between the two tapped points.

 

Keyboard shortcut: F

 

You can also create a circle by first defining it in Symbolic

 

view. The syntax is circle(GA,GB) where A and B are two

 

points. A circle is drawn in Plot view such that A and B define

 

the diameter of the circle.

Ellipse

Tap at one focus point and press E. Tap at the second

 

focus point and press E. Tap at point on the

 

circumference and press E.

Hyperbola

Tap at one focus point and press E. Tap at the second

 

focus point and press E. Tap at point on one branch of

 

the hyperbola and press E.

Parabola

Tap at the focus point and press E. Tap either on a line

 

(the directrix) or a ray or segment nd press E.
