Intoduction to Cabri

These pages are based on Cabri II, a geometry program whose main feature is that it is dynamic. When one part of a figure is moved, then all parts dependent on that also move.

For example, if the point A in the figure on the right is moved along the ellipse, then the lines through A are redrawn, and the relevant intersections updated.
The picure illustrates Pascal's Theorem which states that P, Q and R are always collinear.

For more information on the program, see the Cabri Home Page
You can download a demo version for WINDOWS or MAC From this site. The demo runs for only 15 minutes each session. Also, saving and printing are disabled.
