Until this moment, this kind of software had the ability to create figures in motion and interactive designs, but now, so as to examine guidelines, symmetries and proportions, there is also the possibility to study an image placed on the drawing screen, to mark lines and polygons, to draw parallel and perpendicular lines and to measure and transform. This process allows the connection of two knowledge areas that have been together many times in the history, which are: art and mathematics. This connection can also be operated by students. Quoted from Albrecht D\"urer: ``mathematics, the most accurately, logically and graphically constructive science, should be an important ingredient of art."}, msc2010 = {U70xx (M80xx)}, identifier = {2015e.00964}, }
