"Desmos is an absolute lifesaver for my engineering courses. I used to carry around a bulky, expensive graphing calculator that felt like it was from the 90s. Now, I can plot complex derivatives and Fourier series right on my iPad with incredible speed. The sliders help me visualize transformations in real-time, which made my 'aha' moment in Calculus finally happen!"

"As a teacher, this is the most powerful tool in my classroom. It turns abstract functions into interactive experiences that my students actually enjoy exploring. The accessibility features, especially the Audio Trace and screen reader support, allow me to create an inclusive environment for all my learners. It's more than a calculator; it's a bridge to understanding."

About the app

Everything you need to know about Desmos Graphing Calculator.

Description

Explore math with the fast and powerful Desmos Graphing Calculator. Plot any equation, from lines and parabolas to derivatives and Fourier series. Add sliders to demonstrate function transformations, create tables to input and plot data, animate your graphs, and more—all for free. Features: Graphing: Plot polar, cartesian, or parametric graphs. There’s no limit to how many expressions you can graph at one time—and you don’t even need to enter expressions in y= form! Sliders: Adjust values interactively to build intuition, or animate any parameter to visualize its effect on the graph. Tables: Input and plot data, or create an input-output table for any function. Statistics: Find best-fit lines, parabolas, and more. Zooming: Scale the axes independently or at the same time with the pinch of two fingers, or edit the window size manually to get the perfect window. Points of Interest: Touch a curve to show maximums, minimums, and points of intersection. Tap the gray points of interest to see their coordinates. Hold and drag along a curve to see the coordinates change under your finger. Scientific Calculator: Just type in any equation you want to solve and Desmos will show you the answer. It can handle square roots, logs, absolute value, and more. Inequalities: Plot Cartesian and polar inequalities. Accessibility: Read and edit math using a screen reader or a refreshable Braille display, and use audio trace to explore graphs and data through sound. Offline: No internet access required.
