<![CDATA[This study used a qualitative-descriptive study with the aim of this study to describe the pointing profile and gesture representation of students in solving mathematical problems with the material of linear functions. The subjects in the study were 2 students of class X SMA Negeri 2 Dompu. The research subjects were selected by 1 student as the pointing gesture and 1 student as the representational gesture. Data was collected by providing assignments, gesture observation sheets, and interviews with selected subjects. The data were analyzed qualitatively through data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. This study resulted that the pointing gesture helped P1 describe the answer completion plan, helped focus himself to perform calculations, generate ideas, and facilitate the description of information from questions and answers as well as check and understand questions and answers when solving questions. Representational gesture helps R1 to describe the steps to understand the graphic related to the problem, helps focus on understanding the problem and can be careful in solving the problem. Also plays a role in concretizing ideas/ideas that are being worked on or are being thought of by students.]]>
