Detailed steps for drawing an isosceles right triangle using geometric sketchpad

If you want to know how to use the geometric sketchpad to draw an isosceles right triangle, this detailed tutorial brought to you by PHP editor Baicao will provide you with step-by-step guidance. This article will cover the necessary steps to draw an isosceles right triangle, including creating an artboard, setting angles and lengths, and completing the triangle. If you're confused about drawing an isosceles right triangle, keep reading below to learn how to accomplish this task easily.

Open the geometric sketchpad, click the [Ruler] tool on the toolbox, hold down the [shift] key, draw a horizontal line segment in the operating area, select the [Text] tool on the toolbox, When the cursor changes from a [little white hand] to a [little black hand], click on the two endpoints of the line segment to display A and B, and obtain the line segment AB.

Click the [Select Arrow] tool on the toolbox, select an endpoint of the middle line segment and the line segment, and click the [Construct]-[Perpendicular Line] command in sequence to draw the perpendicular line of line segment AB.

Click the [Point] tool on the toolbox, move the cursor to the vertical line, when the vertical line is highlighted, click the left mouse button to get a point, and select the [Select Arrow] tool on the toolbox , select the points A and B you just made, and click the [Construct]-[Angle Bisector] menu command to make the angle bisector.

Click the [Select Arrow] tool on the toolbox, select point B and the angle bisector just made, click [Construction] - [Perpendicular Line] menu command, Draw the perpendicular to the angle bisector.

Click the [Point] tool on the toolbox, move the cursor to the vertical lines j and l, click the left mouse button when they are highlighted, and get a point, which is the intersection point of the vertical lines j and l, as shown in the figure. Click the [Text] tool on the toolbox and name it C.

Click the [Select Arrow] tool on the toolbox, click in the blank space of the operating area to release all selected objects, and then select the points on the vertical lines j, l, line segment AC and Angle bisector, click [Show] - [Hide Object] menu commands in sequence to hide the selected object. Then select points C and A, press the shortcut key [ctrl+L], draw the line segment CA, and click in the blank space of the operating area to release the selected object. Use the same method to make line segment CB and obtain an isosceles right triangle, as shown in the figure.

Click [File]-[Save] menu commands in sequence. (You can pull the three vertices of the triangle arbitrarily, and the characteristics of the isosceles right triangle always remain unchanged).
