This task uses GeoGebra software, which can be freely downloaded, to explore what happens to the line segments and angles of a triangle when it is reflected, rotated, and translated. Includes printable task sheet for students and a...

Students will discover how to move a function up, down, to the right or left or reflect it.

In this activity, students will investigate the relationship among the three types of rigid transformations - translations, rotations, and reflections.

For this geometry game, students must guide Transtar, an alien spaceship, across space by applying transformations to it. At the same time, there are dangers to avoid and the number of moves and tries are limited.

Contains plans for two lessons that examine different translations of "Beowulf" in order to study the nature of translation and examine the verse structure of the original text. In addition to objectives and standards, this instructional...

Given rotations, reflections, translations, and dilations, students will be able to develop algebraic representations for rotations and generalize and then compare and contrast the properties of congruence transformations and...

Students will be in groups and plot given points. From the given points the students will plot the appropriate reflection or translation.

Includes rules, examples, and sample problems on 6 different types of translations; vertical and horizontal shift, stretch, and reflection. Uses six basic functions (x, x^2, x^3, 1/x, x^1/2, and abs(x)) throughout examples, which makes...

Use Glencoe's Math Course 2 randomly generated self-checking quiz to test your knowledge of translations. Each question has a "Hint" link to help. Choose the correct answer for each problem. At the bottom of the page click the "Check It"...

Learn how similarity transformation is one or more rigid transformations (reflection, rotation, translation) followed by a dilation.

This University of Regina site gives some history and definitions about translations and symmetry.

This site provides everything you need to know about translating graphs. Plenty of examples and charts and very easy to understand.

The purpose of this task is to apply translations and reflections to the graphs of the functions f(x)=cos x and g(x)=sin x in order to derive some trigonometric identities. There are also rotations 180 degrees about points on the x-axis...

Accompanied by links to online activities and demonstrations, students learn about the different types of transformations on a coordinate grid through this lesson plan. The lesson is designed to match the Grade 7 Ontario curriculum, with...

Students use the Geoboard App to measure arcs, line segments, area, and perimeter, as well as rotate, reflect, and translate objects.

In this lesson on transformations on coordinate planes, 8th graders explore dilation, translation, reflection, and rotation of shapes within a coordinate plane.

This site presents information on the three basic transformations of figures in a plane: Reflections, Rotations, and Translations.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Translate, rotate, and reflect figures using coordinate notation and graphing in the coordinate plane.

This article explores Sir Gawain and the Green Knight and reflects on how he approached his own translation of the poem.

Explore transformations of a polygon that include: 1) translation 2) rotation 3) reflection and 4) dilation.

Given geometric figures on the coordinate plane, the student will apply the definition of congruence, in terms of rigid transformations, to identify congruent figures. The student will also identify and distinguish between reflectional...

This upper elementary and middle school lesson plan introduces a variety of motion geometry concepts such as translations, reflections, and rotations. Lots of interactive support for students.

This lesson plan deals with tessellations and their geometric concepts. Upper elementary and middle school students will also explore polygons, symmetry, analyze patterns and explore the role of mathematics in nature and culture.

Shows the different kinds of isometries and patterns, and gives examples of each kind. Includes definitions, terminology, examples, and problems.
