Use the interactive transformation tool to perform dilations for four problems. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to try questions repeatedly, watch a video or receive hints.

By the end of the module students will be able to identify a given function dilation, identify the way the graph will change and sketch a graph of the dilated function

Oswego City School District provides a three link tutorial on dilations. By clicking on each of these links, you will find the definition of a dilation, examples of dilations, and a quiz to test your skills.

Given a coordinate plane, the student will graph dilations, reflections, and translations, and use those graphs to solve problems.

A transformation is a function that takes points in the plane as inputs and gives other points as outputs. You can think of a transformation as a rule that tells you how to create new points from old points.

Time travel is a staple of science fiction stories, but is it actually possible? Colin Stuart imagines where (or, when) this fascinating phenomenon, time dilation, may one day take us. [5:04]

Given a pair of similar figures, including dilations, students will be able to generalize that the lengths of corresponding sides are proportional.

Students will understand all transformations of functions: translations, dilations and reflections. By the end of the activity students will be able to identify a function transformation, identify the way the graph will change given a...

Given rotations, reflections, translations, and dilations, students will be able to develop algebraic representations for rotations, and generalize and then compare and contrast the properties of congruence transformations and...

To make sense of this, you have to first see the Twin Paradox: Introduction, which is the special relativity version and is linked to this page. This general relativity explanation views the paradox from a gravitational point of view.

This article from WebMD provides great information on the third trimester of pregnancy. Denise Chism is the author of this somewhat in-depth article that tells of weeks Thirty-Three to Thirty-Eight, and the finishing touches on the baby.

Understand what relativity is and what Albert Einstein discovered while studying it. Identify special relativity and general relativity.
