Desmos Graphing Calculator

Free browser-based graphing calculator for plotting equations, inequalities, and parametric curves on the coordinate plane. Sliders animate parameters, so you can see how changing slopes, intercepts, or coefficients moves lines, circles, and conics, and check hand-worked analytic geometry problems visually.
