Examine the various rigid transformations and recognize sequences of these transformations. The lesson asks learners to perform sequences of rotations, reflections, and translations. Individuals also describe a sequence that results in...

No need to change anything about the resource. The first of eight modules in the MVP Geometry unit focuses on transformations in the coordinate plane. It connects translations, rotations, and reflections to congruence, symmetry, and...

Your learners connect the new concepts of transformations in the coordinate plane to their previous knowledge using the solid vocabulary development in this unit. Like a foreign language, mathematics has its own set of vocabulary terms...

Viewers learn how to identify and perform a variety of transformations with a video that provides seven items on transformations. Pupils demonstrate their understanding of dilations, reflections, rotations, and translations. The video...

Uncover the properties of translations through this exploratory lesson. Learners apply vectors to describe and verify transformations in the second installment of a series of 18. It provides multiple opportunities to practice this...

Learners create tessellations with computer software while applying their knowledge of reflections, rotations, and translations.

Comparing the movement of graphs geometrically when small changes are made to the parent function motivates this collaborative discussion on the transformations of functions to their various forms. Vertical and horizontal shifts due to...

Looking for a strategy to organize the information related to transformations? The materials ask pupils to identify a sequence of rigid transformations, identify corresponding angles and sides, and write a congruence statement. They...

This amazingly extensive unit covers a wealth of geometric ground, ranging from constructions to angle properties, triangle theorems, rigid transformations, and fundamentals of formal proofs.  Each of the almost-forty lessons...

In this transformations worksheet, students copy the given figures onto grid paper and complete the transformations. Students then find the pictures that show translations, rotations, and reflections. Students finish with two test prep...

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...

Why can we see our reflection in a window but not a brick wall? Young physicists learn the Law of Reflection and various light properties that help them answer this and other questions about reflection. Use the PowerPoint to introduce...

Tenth graders perform reflections on different geometric shapes. In this geometry worksheet,students define the concept of geometric reflections and find the coordinates of the reflection on a coordinate grid.

In this transformations worksheet, learners solve 25 short answer problems.  Students dilate, reflect, and translate points and figures in the coordinate plane.  Learners determine scale factors and lines of symmetry of figures.

To make the point that there are many forms of language, each with its own purpose, class members select 10 lines from Doescher's play, translate these lines first into contemporary English and then into "SMS/Tweet." 

Review for the test with a comprehensive list of terms and concepts for the unit on congruence and similarity. It divides divides the sections in the order of the lessons presented during the unit. 

Translating complex numbers is as simple as adding 1, 2, 3. In the ninth lesson in a 32-part series, the class takes a deeper look at the geometric effect of adding and subtracting complex numbers. The resource leads pupils into what it...

Introducing ... the Transmographer. Young mathematicians investigate translations, reflections, and rotations. The applet lets users perform transformations on triangles, squares, and parallelograms.

Young geometers flex their transformation muscles in this brief but powerful exercise using dilations and translations to develop the similarity of circles. The plan provides guidelines to help learners navigate a pair of...

Model real-life structures with mathematics. A project-based lesson presents a problem situation requiring classes to develop a function to model the St. Louis Arch and the Rainbow Bridge in Arizona. They create their models by...

Five pages for geometry practice relating to symmetry provide mathematicians with exercises on transformations and symmetry, properties of isometries, compositions of transformations, tessellations with regular polygons, and other...

A lengthy presentation on geometric reflections is here for your young geometers. Learners consider a shape, then must choose between four reflections to find the one that is a true vertical, horizontal, or diagonal reflection of the...

Flip, turn, and slide about the coordinate plane. Pupils define the rigid motions and experiment with them before determining the relationships of the slopes of parallel and perpendicular lines. The sixth unit in a nine-part series...

The coordinate plane is a popular place! Identify rotations, reflections, and dilations on the coordinate plane. Pupils work in small groups to match transformations of a figure with the description of the transformation....
