In summary, the best program to use for creating math illustrations is a vector graphics editor, such as Adobe Illustrator or Inkscape. These programs are user-friendly and offer tutorials to guide users through the process. It is important to use a vector graphics editor for precise and high-quality illustrations, rather than a raster image editor like Photoshop. Key features to look for in a program for creating math illustrations include the ability to work with vector graphics, support for mathematical symbols and equations, and the option to export in different file formats. While some free programs like Inkscape and GeoGebra are available, they may have a steeper learning curve and fewer advanced features compared to paid programs.
