Abstract
In classroom teaching, students are often shown graphs of relations derived which they themselves never generate using calculator as it becomes cumbersome and time consuming. This leaves a gap in their understanding of visualising mathematical dependence from the mathematical formula. The spreadsheet becomes an efficient means of generating data from the known mathematical relation. In this article we discuss three examples viz. δ v/s i curve for prism, trajectory of a projectile, exponential growth and decay and addition of simple harmonic oscillations.
