Activity 0.1 - GeoGebra Interface

Aim :

To familiarise the GeoGebra interface and toolbar

Activity 0.2 - Graph of a function

Aim :

To familiarise the use of input bar by drawing the graphs of some

standard functions.

Procedure :

• Draw the graphs of standard functions using inputs. Observe the graph

of each function and find its domain and range.

• Input ceil(x).

• Observe the graph of the function, compare the graph of this function

with the graph of the floor function. Define this function.

Downloaded from hssreporter.com

 Answer:

The graph of Ceiling function is obtained by shifting the graph

of the greatest integer function (Floor function) upwards by one unit.

Ceil function is defined as the least integer which is not less

than x

Activity 0.4 - Domain and Range

We discuss the domain and range of when n is a natural

number, and the behaviour of the graph as n increases.

different values of .

n Function Domain Range

1 x

2 x2

3 x3

What happens to the graph of the function between −1 and 1 as

becomes larger and larger ? Why ?

Answer:

As n increases, portion of the graph in (-1, 1) approaches more

and more close to the x axis. This is because of the reason that if x belongs

to (-1, 1) , approaches to 0 as increases to infinity
