The following table gives an overview of which features are available in which apps.
GeoGebra in Exams
We believe that students benefit from using the exact same GeoGebra app in class, for homework and during tests. This way, they will get the most practice with the app and therefore be able to make the best use of our technology in all situations. That's why we have created our [url=https://www.geogebra.org/m/y3aufmy8]GeoGebra Exam Mode[/url] and added it within each one of our apps. The exam mode locks down mobile devices so students cannot communicate or use any other apps than GeoGebra during a test. This approach has already been field-tested and approved by several ministries of education in several regions.

Parallelogram

Task
Create a parallelogram and change it by dragging the vertices of the figure. Explore how the values of the sides and angles are changing. [br][br]Explore the construction and learn how to discover properties of parallelograms with [url=https://www.geogebra.org/geometry]GeoGebra Geometry[/url]. Then try it yourself by following the instructions below.[br]
