Introduction to Hyperbolic Geometry with Sketchpad

The main objective is to introduce the Hyperbolic Geometry from a practical point of view. Although in the document Workshop in Hyperbolic Geometry.pdf we can find a theoric explanation about this geometry, this is not the main objective. Our aim is that the user can interact with the Poincare's Half-Plane Model of the Hyperbolic Geometry from some tools created by the program The Geometer Sketchpad and know this geometry so different from the one we are accustomed to. So that, the user can work with this geometry, the tools to construct objects and the transformations had been created.

Any comment or suggestion will be welcome. e-mail
