Drawing the Coordinate Plane and Points on the Plane
To plot a point in the coordinate plane, you first need a coordinate plane. Pupils learn to draw an appropriate set of axes with labels on a coordinate plane. They must also determine a reasonable scale to plot given coordinate pairs on...

Transformations - Rotations in the Coordinate Plane
In this geometry lesson, math scholars brainstorm examples of rotations. Using the SMARTboard, learners observe a rotation. They create their own rotation using graph paper. Finally, pupils complete a worksheet and graph rotations.

Similar Triangles on the Coordinate Plane
Students investigate triangles and their properties. For this geometry lesson, students differentiate between similar and congruent triangles. They use the SSS theorem to help identify the triangles that are similar or congruent.
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.
