Similarity (geometry) — Geometry = Two geometrical objects are called similar if one is congruent to the result of a uniform scaling (enlarging or shrinking) of the other. One can be obtained from the other by uniformly stretching , possibly with additional rotation,… … Wikipedia
List of interactive geometry software — Interactive geometry software (IGS, or dynamic geometry environments, DGEs) are computer programs which allow one to create and then manipulate geometric constructions, primarily in plane geometry. In most IGS, one starts construction by putting… … Wikipedia
