iCrosss Lite vs Geometry

iCrosss Lite is a free version of popular and unique educational application iCrosss which will help you learn solid geometry in an easy and funny way. iCrosss allows you to build a cross-section of each available polyhedra by your defined plane. The plane can be defined by three points (taps) on polyhedron faces. The application supports such kinds of polyhedra as regular polyhedra (Platonic solids), Pyramids, Prisms, Anti-prisms and Archimedean solids and duals. Polyhedrons are displayed in 3D representation, which allows you to rotate it in any direction. Cool chalkboard drawing style and fonts were used for awesome look’n’feel. To build a cross-section you have to put three points on polyhedron faces in order to define a section plane. There is two view modes that you can use for better cross-section experience: 3D mode and 3D cut mode. 3D cut mode is available only when you have already built cross-section. In this mode you can choose one of two solid pieces of initial polyhedron to continue work with. Available option for printing and sending via e-mail of the polyhedron or its section. You can access information regarding selected solid, which includes short description, number of faces, vertices, edges, web-link for more information and useful formulas. Polyhedra are organized in simple list divided by categories. A tutorial mode was designed for quick understanding. It will take you through the general application features. You can get access to few more polyhedra by making a post on your Facebook page. To display formulas custom rendering engine was developed. It visualizes a LaTeX formula format.

The GeometrySolver is not just an app, its a canvas and a book too. This app not only solves the geometric shapes, it also teaches you the formulas related to each geometric shape as well as it draws the geometric shapes when solved. This app is designed by an engineer to the perfection with every details in mind. It calculates side, height, diagonals, apothem, diameter, radius, perimeter, circumference, area, lateral area, surface area, volume. Some shapes have a dedicated interactive tab to play around and draw those shapes of different dimensions. Each geometric shape has its corresponding formulas written beautifully in mathematical way. This is a perfect app for your kids to learn geometry interactively. Draw, solve, share the geometric shapes. Drawn/solved shapes are displayed with their properties (numeric values). The Solve tab of angle is dynamic and interactive. You can touch/drag on the surface to draw an angle or use the slider to draw an angle. It automatically saves your hard work locally on your device so you can come back and pick up from where you left off as your great effort will not be lost. There are so many common geometric shapes to learn from like square, circle, cylinder, cone, cuboid, pyramid, sphere and more There is also a Study page to help you with learning formulae related to many common geometric shapes. This is an app for all student groups. From high school to college to university students. Be creative. Enjoy the app!
