Math Posts: 42 Location: Bryan Station	Does anyone have a secret way to reproduce geometry diagrams other than copying the diagram and using tape to put it in the document. I have been trying to type some of the geometry ACT prep questions and it is so time consuming trying to create the diagram and then add the text in the correct place! Are there programs out there that make this process easier?

Math Location: Retired FCPS, Current UK and Transy	You need geometer's sketchpad. You should have it in your building. I also use the online itext. When we got the newest books they came with a card with a serial number used to set up access to the online text and all the worksheets. I cut and paste from there. I also draw simple figures in word. If you need help, with any of the above, let me know. Edited by rtallent 2/5/2008 5:26 PM
