Looking for a Drawing Program

409 Views Asked by At

I am writing a math exam and I'd like to include a picture. I want a free drawing program so that I can draw the coordinate axes with a unit circle. Inscribed in the unit circle will be a hexagon. The interior of the hexagon will be divided into triangles. Which drawing program will make this process as painless as possible?

You can see a good list at Wikipedia.

I suggest you try GeoGebra, which is convenient for geometric constructions (for more general things, Inkscape is very good).

I use ipe for all my figures. Snapping, vector graphics, and the ability to include latex are some of the standout features.

Since you mention nowhere that your program has to include a GUI, TikZ is always mentionable (although I know that if this is just a quick assignment for an exam, even using LaTeX might seem like overkill).

You can look at the official documentation here: paws.wcu.edu/tsfoguel/tikzpgfmanual.pdf

and some different examples here: http://www.texample.net/tikz/examples/
