Abstract:In our contribution we describe some on-going improvements concerning the Automated Reasoning Tools developed in GeoGebra Discovery, providing different examples of the performance of these new features. We describe the new ShowProof command, that outputs both the sequence of the different steps performed by GeoGebra Discovery to confirm a certain statement, as well as a number intending to grade the difficulty or interest of the assertion. The proposal of this assessment measure, involving the comparison of the expression of the thesis (or conclusion) as a combination of the hypotheses, will be developed.
Abstract:We introduce and discuss, through a computational algebraic geometry approach, the automatic reasoning handling of propositions that are simultaneously true and false over some relevant collections of instances. A rigorous, algorithmic criterion is presented for detecting such cases, and its performance is exemplified through the implementation of this test on the dynamic geometry program GeoGebra.
