Home » Applications » Education » Kig
Kig is a program for exploring geometric constructions. It is part of the KDE Education Project. |
Kig is meant as a better replacement for such free programs as KGeo, KSeg and Dr. Geo and commercial programs like Cabri.
Kig is a useful and powerful utility for high school students and teachers, and as a fun project for me and others. I have learned a lot by working on it, and it's fun to work together with other people on it. I've written much of the Kig code myself, but I've also had a lot of help from other people.
Features
Screenshots
You can select objects by drawing a box. Give each object a suitable name. | |
Kig has a tool for drawing regular polygons. Arbitrary polygons are supported, too. |
Documentation
Kig Macros
Since Kig can import and use third-part macros as built-in objects, it can have new objects, being more and more powerful.
If you don't know how to import a macro, please read the FAQ.
