Exploring Transformations: Translations and Reflections
Learners perform translation and reflection. They identify the coordinate points of the new graph and create a formula for the movement. They identify the pre-image the and after image.
Curated OER
Coordinate Graphs, Translations and Reflections
Students perform translations and reflections. In this algebra lesson, students use the TI calculator to graph functions. They move the functions around on the coordinate plane using translation and reflection.
Curated OER
Transformations and Matrices
There are four activities in this extensive lesson covering the identity matrix and scaling, the linear representation of translations, the linear representation of rotations, and reflections. In small groups, they use the Cabri II...

Curated OER
Reflections
Students investigate image and pre-image. In this geometry lesson, students identify the reflection and rotation of different shape on a coordinate plane. They identify similarities and differences of image and pre-image of a reflection.
Curated OER
Composition of Reflections
Students perform reflections and translations of polygons. In this geometry lesson, students perform reflection in two parallel lines. They use Cabri to observe the transformation and rotations of each shape.
