Curated OER
Transformation
In this recognizing reflection, translation, and rotation of figures worksheet, students observe figures on grid paper, and read and follow directions to reflect, translate, and rotate them. Students solve 3 problems.
Curated OER
Unit 14 - Loci and Transformations
In this transformations worksheet, high schoolers solve 25 short answer problems. Students dilate, reflect, and translate points and figures in the coordinate plane. High schoolers determine scale factors and lines of symmetry of figures.
Curated OER
Reflections
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.
Curated OER
Geometry Practice Exam
In this reflections and rotations worksheet, students reflect and rotate lines in graphs and draw lines of symmetry through patterns. Students complete 24 problems.
Curated OER
Geometry Exam
In this reflections and symmetry worksheet, students draw lines of symmetry in shapes and patterns and reflect letters over lines in graphs. Students complete 20 problems.
Curated OER
Reflections
In this reflections worksheet, 10th graders solve and complete 34 different problems that include determining various reflections. First, they trace the figure and draw its reflection in each line. Then, 10th graders use the diagram...

Reflections in the Plane
Have your class explore the concept of reflections as they use Cabri Jr. to construct a triangle and reflect it over a line. Learners reflect shapes across the coordinate plane and across the lines y = x and y = -x.
Curated OER
Reflections (4)
In this reflections activity, students reflect three sided and four sided shapes across a graph. Students complete 6 reflection problems.

Congruent Triangles
Geometers prove that triangle PQR is congruent to triangle ABC by describing any combination of rotations, reflections, and translations that would prove it so. There is only this single task on the handout, but a detailed explanation of...
Curated OER
Tessellation
Pupils create an art piece incorporating tessellating shapes, translational symmetry, reflectional symmetry,and or rotational symmetry. They are asked if they know the definition of tessellation. If so, students are asked what shapes...
Curated OER
Reflection
Students examine how some transformations, such as reflections and rotations, do not change the figure itself, only its position or orientation.
Curated OER
Glide Reflections
In this glide reflection worksheet, learners draw and answer questions about reflections of different shapes. Students answer 5 questions.
Curated OER
Frieze Patterns
For this frieze pattern worksheet, students draw frieze patterns that can be constructed from a given motif. They perform translations, glide reflections, horizontal and vertical reflections and 180 degree rotations. This one-page...
Curated OER
Coordinate Plane Transformations
Geometric transformations are explored by high schoolers. They will create a set of instructions for plotting coordinates representing an original transformation of a real-world figure. These instructions are shared with middle...

Solving Inequalities
What does translating points on a number line have to do with solving inequalities? Young mathematicians first learn about translations of points on a number line, and then use this information to solve linear inequalities in one variable.

Transformations in the Coordinate Plane: Reteach
In this transformations worksheet, students review the terms and example diagrams for a translation, reflection, and rotation. Students then identify the coordinates for a triangle after completing the given transformations in the four...
Curated OER
Tilings with Multiple Symmetries
Students explore how some tilings can display rotational and/or reflection symmetry in addition to translational symmetry. Students demonstrate how these tilings can be generated using either one of the symmetry concepts and Zome System...
