=============== POLYGON TOOLKIT TI-83 Version =============== AUTHOR & CONTACT Gary Cox gc.17@attbi.com INTRODUCTION Polygon Toolkit is intended for use in geometry classes in the high school or middle school level. It provided useful terms of different polygons and aids in polygon computations. Polygon Toolkit is not be used in any fashion pertaining to acedemic dishonesty. INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS The following are required to install Polygon Toolkit (TI-83 Version): *TI-83 graphing calculator *Linking hardware and software OPERATING SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS Polygon Toolkit does not require any special operating systems. COMPATIBLE OPERATING SYSTEMS Polygon Toolkit is compatible with, but does not require, the following opertaing systems: *AShell *SOS INSTALLATION PROCEDURE The following is the procedure for installing Polygon Toolkit: 1) Extract Polytool.83p from this Winzip file. 2) Send Polytool.83p to your TI-83 graphing calculator. 3) Polygon Toolkit may be run by executing POLYTOOL in the PRGM menu. PROGRAM OPERATION MENUS Use the up, down, and ENTER keys to select a menu item. A menu item may also be selected by pressing its corresponding number. TERMS The Terms section of the program shows the names of different polygons and how many sides they have. Press ENTER to scroll through them. You will be returned to the main menu. COMPUTATIONS Answer the questions you are asked about the polygon by entering the number and pressing ENTER. The computation will be displayed after you have answered all the questions. FUTURE PORTS Polygon Toolkit will most likely be ported to the TI-73, TI-82, and TI-83+ in the near future. FUTURE PROGRAMS Additional programs created in the future may include Circle Toolkit.
