What is it?
LiveMath is a powerful 2 & 3-D grapher,
simulator, and problem solver.
-
This program does calculation,
including calculus. It also allows you
to enter different types of problems
and it shows you EVERY step it
goes through to get the answer. For
example, when adding fractions, it
first finds the least common
denominator, then multiplies the
fractions, etc. All steps appear on
the page. You can change
something in the original problem and
all steps to solve it are redone to
solve the new problem. It also allows
you to save these “problems” that
you have made up. Imagine students
creating their own problems on this
and then collaborating with other
students explaining how the answer
is computed.
-
You can also do graphing of multiple
equations, inequalities, etc. Plus it
has 3D graphing, and curve fitting.
You see the equation and the graph
at the same time, and manipulating
the equation results in the graph
changing.
-
It includes animation so you can
-
make simulations (for
example, finding the limit of a
function as x->c, there are
lines on the graph that move
toward c from both ends)
-
visualize 3D by spinning and
tilting the axes.
Where do I find it?
