.

• Notice that the solution is the same as the coordinates of point A.

Using the Geometry Application with Other Applications

• To show the coordinates of A, just select

point A. Its coordinates will be displayed in
the status bar.

Tip

• Try using this drag and drop method to find the point of intersection of two lines. This is a great

way to find the solution to a system of equations.

• To view a fractional result as a decimal, tap the input row and then t.

• The information that appears when you drop a figure into another application depends on the

figure you are dragging. Many of the possible outcomes are listed in the table below.
