Creating a Button to Create Dynamic Shapes
Step 1: Creating numbers for your problem
- Type in the following numbers into the input box.
- a = RandomBetween(3, 10) (Randomly chooses side lengths for a regular polygon)
- **Note: You will see no changes on your screen yet. This creates a random number value that you can use, but you don't see it**
- Create a regular polygon by clicking on the polygon tool and selecting "Regular Polygon"
- Draw the first side of the polygon by drawing a segment between two points.
- In the pop-up box, type "a" for the number of Vertices in the polygon.
- Press "OK" to create the polygon.
- Select the Button feature from the slider's drop down box.
- In the pop-up box, put "New Shape" as the caption.
- Type "UpdateConstruction[]" in the GeoGebra script box
- Press "OK" to create the button.
- Test out your button and see the shape change each time you click the button.
