How to Write and Solve a Differential Equation in GeoGebra

You can use GeoGebra to find the general and particular solutions of a differential equation.

GeoGebra Instruction 1

Open CAS under GeoGebra icon View in GeoGebra icon Menu.

General Solution

Type

SolveODE(<Equation>)

into CAS. For <Equation>, fill in the entire differential equation. Press Enter.

Particular Solution

Type

SolveODE(<Equation>, <Point(s) on f>, <Point(s) on f’>)

in CAS. For <Equation>, fill in the entire differential equation. Type the initial condition (a,f(a)) as <Point(s) on f>, and (b,f(b)) as <Point(s) on f’>. Press Enter.
