A Suggestion of Using GeoGebra at College Level: The Case of Finding Arc-Length of a Curve Dr. Tolga KABACA Dr. Mehmet BULUT
The Relationship between programming algorithm and mathematical thinking structure Our task will be producing a visualization like LowerSum and UpperSum commands’ of GeoGebra
A Quick Algorithm For Constructing How to Evaluate the Arclength of a Curve • Plot the graph of the function f(x), • Determine some points on the curve of f(x) for x = a from x = b if you want to evaluate the arc-length in the interval x [a, b] • Constitute the line segments, attaching every successive point on the curve. • Find the sum of the length of all line segments, which obtained at the previous step. • When we increase the number of points on the curve, we will approach to the real value of arc-length of the curve.
Let’s see the Visualization Let’s look at the mathematical perspective in terms of GeoGebra Let’s consider on adding a module (or an easy platform) to GeoGebra for producing quick procedures to enrich GeoGebra Library!
