Determine the Coordinate of Transformations
Learners investigate transformation on a coordinate plane. In this geometry lesson, students identify pairs of coordinates and their location on the grid. They perform rotation and reflection of each polygon.
Curated OER
Let the Matrix Do It
Students create a matrix of the vertices of a triangle and produce new matrices that dilate, translate, rotate, and reflect the original triangle. After multiplying each matrix by a new scale factor, they graph the new matrix and...
