Hi Karim,

welcome to the board!

An easy way would be to to use a drawing program for producing the images, such as the freely available open source drawing program Inkscape. Afterwards you could include it using \includegraphics of the graphicx package.

Or you create it directly within the LaTeX document using packages such as PStricks or TikZ. Have a look at: TikZ geometry examples.

With GeoGebra there is a special software for interactive geometry. It offers (limited) export to the common graphics packages pgf/tikZ and PSTricks.

Best regards and welcome to the board
