Deprecated: GeoGebra Applets
This PG code shows how to write WebWork questions with interactive GeoGebra applets. Instructions for how to create the interactive applet in GeoGebra that is used in this example are given at the bottom of the page. This example is deprecated because it uses Java instead of JavaScript. See the GeoGebraWeb JavaScript example instead.

JavaScript Setup for Persistence of State: For the state of the GeoGebra applet to remain the same when answers are submitted or the page is refreshed, we need a little JavaScript. GeoGebra can interact with other things, like WebWork, by using its JavaScript methods GeoGebra_JavaScript_Methods. |
