Curated OER
Scale Factor Area Perimeter
Mathematicians compare triangles at different scales. In this geometry lesson, students calculate the area and perimeter of triangles. They use the Ti to make observation of the change that takes place as the triangles are dilated.

Determine the Coordinate of Transformations
Students 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.

Data Representation
Learners solve real life scenarios using math. In this geometry lesson, students collect, predict and interpret data. They measure a chair using different measurements and choose what would make the chair the best design.
Curated OER
Transfromations
In this geometry worksheet, 10th graders solve questions that involve rotations, reflections, and dilations. The one page worksheet contains ten multiple choice questions. Answers are not provided.
Curated OER
Transformations Homework
In this geometry worksheet, students transform a coordinate based on a reflection, translation, or dilation in order to obtain the image. There are 12 questions.

The Scaling Principle for Area
As they investigate scaling figures and calculate the resulting areas, groups determine the area of similar figures. They continue to investigate the results when the vertical and horizontal scales are not equal.

Similar Triangles
Proving triangles are similar is often an exercise in applying one of the many theorems young geometers memorize, like the AA similarity criteria. But proving that the criteria themselves are valid from basic principles is a great...

The Geometric Effect of Some Complex Arithmetic 1
Translating complex numbers is as simple as adding 1, 2, 3. In the ninth instructional activity in a 32-part series, the class takes a deeper look at the geometric effect of adding and subtracting complex numbers. The resource leads...

Representing Reflections with Transformations
In the 16th lesson in the series of 32 the class uses the concept of complex multiplication to build a transformation in order to reflect across a given line in the complex plane. The lesson breaks the process of reflecting across a line...

Rotation
Rotate this resource into your lesson plans. Scholars rotate polygons in the coordinate plane by multiples of 90 degrees. They then compare the original and new figures to develop conjectures about coordinate points after rotations.
Curated OER
Transformations, Tessellations, and Technology
Young scholars complete a unit about transformations and tessellations. They explore various tessellation websites, determine which shapes tessellate, complete a log about which website activities they complete, and create a...
