Good, free program for drawing?

Post by Jaeger »

Does anybody know a free program or website (like Paint) where I can draw precise geometric figures on a blank background and print them out?

I need to be able to:
-Make straight lines by specifying their length (preferably in some real world unit like inches or cm)
-Move the lines around manually, or specify their coordinates
-Determine angles (or at least determine the slope)

What I am trying to build is an arm of a Koch Snowflake

Try: https://www.math10.com/en/geometry/geog ... gebra.html

But the lengths of lines do not use real-world units :(

Gimp? I'm not much of a drawer myself, but it has a ton of features for image editing/drawing.

There's a bit of a learning curve and it doesn't really count as drawing but I think LaTeX with Tikz is good for your purpose.
