Select a point B that depends on another point A and whose locus should be drawn. Then, click on point A to create the locus of point B (also see command Locus).
Note: Point A has to be a point on an object (e. g. line, segment, circle).
Example:
· Type f(x) = x^2 – 2 x – 1 into the Input Bar and press the Enter-key.
·
Place a new point A on the x-axis
(see tool New Point; see command Point).
· Create point B = (x(A), f'(x(A))) that depends on point A.
·
Select tool Locus
and successively click on point B and point A.
· Drag point A along the x-axis to see point B moving along its locus line.
