Spanish term

el significado que se obtenga (in this context)

Spanish to English Science Mathematics & Statistics geometry
Por otro lado, en el DGS (Dynamic Geometry Software) al arrastrar un punto utilizando el ratón se está modificando la posición de dicho punto (considerado como la señal luminosa en la pantalla de la computadora) y se espera que la figura en movimiento es el significado que se obtenga, modificando la percepción que se tenía de los objetos geométricos, al grado que se utilizan expresiones del tipo “movemos el cuadrado”, “el punto vuela”, etcétera.

TIA

the coordinates obtained

Each coordinate for this point is associated with a "value" on some basis (e.g., on an axis or, in the case of polar coordinates, a distance and an angle). So one hopes that by dragging the point around with the mouse, the corresponding coordinates in the program move to the relevant place.
