You can use: ultra thin , very thin , thin , semithick , thick , very thick and ultra thick

There is also the “help lines” option, “line width", "dashed" or "dotted"

You have direct access to the following colors: red , green , blue , cyan, magenta , yellow , black , gray , darkgray , lightgray ,brown , lime , olive , orange , pink , purple , teal , violet and white . And you can define all the colors you might want — see the manual.

\draw [<->, rounded corners, thick, purple] (0,2) -- (0,0) -- (3,0); % There are rounded corners at the intersection

\draw [blue] (0,0) rectangle (1.5,1);   % width hight

\draw [red, ultra thick] (3,0.5) circle [radius=0.5];

two convenient ways to representing Arc
\draw [gray] (6,0) arc [radius=1, start angle=45, end angle= 120]; % count from left, The arc is of radius 1, starts at the point (6,0) leaving it at an angle of 45 degrees and stops when its slope is 120 degrees
\draw[very thick] (0,0) to [out=90,in=195] (2,1.5);
% count degree from right
\draw [<->,thick, cyan] (0,0) to [out=90,in=180] (1,1)
to [out=0,in=180] (2.5,0) to [out=0,in=-135] (4,1) ;

Function

\draw [<->] (0,0.8) -- (0,0) -- (0.5,0);
\draw[green, ultra thick, domain=0:0.5] plot (\x, {0.025+\x+\x*\x});

\begin{tikzpicture}[yscale=1.5]
\draw [help lines, <->] (0,0) -- (6.5,0);
\draw [help lines, ->] (0,-1.1) -- (0,1.1);
\draw [green,domain=0:2*pi] plot (\x, {(sin(\x r)* ln(\x+1))/2});
\draw [red,domain=0:pi] plot (\x, {sin(\x r)});
\draw [blue, domain=pi:2*pi] plot (\x, {cos(\x r)*exp(\x/exp(2*pi))});

The domain instruction shows the range of x which is plotted

Type

Many mathematical functions are possible; you will probably have enough

with factorial(\x), sqrt(\x), pow(\x,y) (which gives y power of x), exp(\x), ln(\x),log10(\x), log2(\x), abs(\x) (the absolute value of x), mod(\x,y) (x modulo y),

round(\x) (rounds x to the nearest integer), floor(\x) (the largest integer smaller than x), ceil(\x) (the smallest integer larger than x),

sin(\x) (sin(x), it assumes that x is in degrees; if x is expressed in radians use sin(\x r)),

cos(\x) (cos(x), it assumes that x is in degrees; if x is expressed in radians use cos(\x r)),

tan(\x) (tan(x), it assumes that x is in degrees; if x is expressed in radians use tan(\x r)),

min(\x,y,), max(\x,y). You can even use rnd (without argument) which yields a random number between 0 and 1.

\draw [ultra thick] (0,0) to [out=87,in=150] (1,1) -- (.85,.15) -- (0,0);
\draw [ultra thick, fill=purple] (2,0) to [out=87,in=150] (3,1) -- (2.85,.15) -- (2,0);
\path [fill=purple] (4,0) to [out=87,in=150] (5,1) -- (4.85,.15) -- (4,0);   % have no outline

You can choose "below", "above", "left", "right", "below right", "above left", "below left", "above right"

\node at (1,1) {yes};

axis

\draw [thick, <->] (0,1) -- (0,0) -- (1,0);
\node [below right] at (1,0) {$x$};
\node [left] at (0,1) {$y$};
\draw[fill] (.4,.6) circle [radius=.5pt];
\node[above right] (.4,.6) {$A$}

equal to 

\draw [thick, <->] (0,1) node [left] {$y$}
-- (0,0) -- (1,0) node [below right] {$x$};
\draw[fill] (.4,.6) circle [radius=.5pt]
node[above right] (.4,.6) {$A$};

aline
\draw [thick] (0,0) -- (9,0);
\draw (0,-.2) -- (0, .2);
\draw (3,-.2) -- (3, .2);
\draw (6,-.2) -- (6, .2);
\draw (9,-.2) -- (9, .2);
\node[align=left, below] at (1.5,-.5)%
{This happens\\in period 1\\and is aligned\\ left};
\node[align=center, below] at (4.5,-.5)%
{This happens\\in period 2\\and is centered};
\node[align=right, below] at (7.5,-.5)%
{This happens\\in period 2\\and is right\\aligned};

With \uncover the lines are “drawn” on

all the slides but made invisible when not called for. With \only the lines are only drawn when called for

\begin{frame}
a few lines
\begin{center}
\begin{tikzpicture}
\draw [blue, ultra thick] (-1,2) -- (6,3);
\uncover<1>{\draw [green,thick] (-4,3) -- (2,2.5);}
\uncover<2>{\draw [red,thick] (0,0) -- (0,5);}
\end{tikzpicture}
\end{center}
and something under.
\end{frame}

\\means new line, $means math symbol
