Assignment 5

Creating and Using GSP Script Tools

Nicolina Scarpelli


Below is a list of many GSP Script Tool links that you may find very useful while using Geometer's Sketchpad. The creation of a library of GSP script tools for doing constructions you might use several times is an efficient way to organize and store your work. Using a script tool to construct the Orthocenter of a triangle multiple times is a lot easier than repeating the construction of an orthocenter from scratch several times.

Centroid

Orthocenter

Circumcenter

Circumcircle

Incenter

Incircle

Medial Triangle

Orthocenter, Mid - Segment Triangle

Orthic Triangle

Pedal Triangle

Center of Nine Point Circle
