Sumario:This study aimed to analyze the development of students in relation to the graphical constructions of trigonometric functions using GeoGebra. The research adopted a qualitative approach of the case study type and had 24 students. The results revealed that the use of GeoGebra as an auxiliary didactic resource in the learning of trigonometric functions was effective, allowing the visualization of graphs and the understanding of their characteristics in a clearer and more objective way. It was also possible to show that the students found it easier to identify the parameters of the functions and understand how they influence their graphic behavior. In addition, the practical activity allowed participants to work in groups, developing interaction and collaboration skills.
