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

This lesson plan reviews transformations in the coordinate plane while mimicking real-world planning skills. It gives an assessment and ideas for remediation, extention as well as ways to manage behavior problems and reluctant learners.

A rigid motion of the plane is a map of the plane to itself which preserves distances between points. The purpose of this task is to use fixed points as a tool for studying and classifying rigid motions of the plane, i.e., translations,...

Explains how simple polygons translate into matrices and how to use 2x2 matrices to represent transformations in a plane. Includes video demonstrating an example where a vector must be rotated 90 degrees using matrices. [4:18]

Choose a transformation and apply it to a shape to observe the resulting image.

The researchers in this study set up a mobile lab including six 3D cameras, three laptops, and 70 luminescent markers. Volunteer dancers were prepped with the markers before turning in front of the cameras, which flash infrared light to...
