Probability Calculator
The 
Probability Calculator is
one of GeoGebra’s main perspectives. You may use it in order to calculate and graph probability distributions, as well
as to conduct statistical tests.
Distributions
Tab Distribution allows you to graph a variety of probability distributions. Just select the distribution you want to work with from the list available in the drop down menu (e.g. Normal, Binomial) and GeoGebra will graph it for you. Then, you may adjust the parameters of the distribution in the adjacent text boxes.
You may also use the buttons provided in order to change the appearance of the distribution:
-
Toggle between the probability
density function and the cumulative distribution function of the distribution -
Modify your graph in order calculate a cumulative
probability (e.g. P(x ≤ X), P(x ≥ X)). To calculate a probability select the interval type using the buttons
provided. Then adjust the interval in the adjacent text boxes or drag the corresponding markers along the x-axis in
the graph.

Probability Calculator Style Bar
The Probability Calculator Stylebar provides options to
overlay your distribution with the Normal Curve and to
export the graph.

You may export your distribution as a picture file (.png), copy it to your computer’s clipboard (GeoGebra Desktop) or
copy it to the |
Drag and Drop: In the GeoGebra Desktop Version, you may use Drag and Drop in order to transfer the plot of your
distribution either to the 
Graphics
View or to another application that will accept images. Just position the mouse at the top of the
Probability Calculator screen
and the cursor will change to a hand cursor. This new cursor allows you to drag the plot into
Graphics View 1 or 2 to create a
new plot or to drag an image of the plot into another application.
Statistics
Tab Statistics allows you to conduct a variety of statistical tests. Just select the test you want to work with from the list available in the drop down menu (e.g. Z Test of a Mean) and specify your Null Hypothesis, as well as your Alternative Hypothesis. Then, adjust the parameters of your test in the provided text boxes and GeoGebra will automatically provide the results of your statistical test.
