Why Does SSS Work?
While it may seem incredibly obvious to the geometry student that congruent sides make congruent triangles, the proving of this by definition actually takes a bit of work. This exercise steps the class through this kind of proof by...

Google Earth Trip
A trip around the world sounds nice, but for now we'll just have to make do with Google Earth. Pupils use pictures of landmarks to apply geometry concepts. They determine whether each building has bilateral or rotational symmetry, search...

Line Reflections
In this line reflections learning exercise, 10th graders solve 10 different problems that include determining different line reflections in images. They identify the line reflections in each of the illustrations shown on the sheet. Then,...
Curated OER
Reflections
In this math worksheet, high schoolers practice constructing reflections of shapes already present in a grid-based graph. This simple worksheet has 12 problems for the students to solve, and includes an answer sheet.
Curated OER
Properties of Reflections
Students perform transformation on their polygons. For this geometry lesson, students identify the correct transformation of each shape. They move the polygons around on a coordinate plane. There are extension and homework activities...
Curated OER
Geometry Coordinates
In this geometry coordinates worksheet, students plot given ordered pairs. This one-page worksheet contains 6 problems.
Curated OER
Transformation, Reflections, Rotations and Translations
Learners create a quilt, using different patterns. In this geometry lesson, students apply prior knowledge as they use different patterns to help them create a quilt using transformations and geometric shapes.
Curated OER
Transformations
For any study of upper-level geometry, this presentation could be of good use. It defines three important concepts: transformation, reflection, and rotation. Although brief, this presentation could easily be used in tandem with problems...

The Geometry of Indigenous Art
Young scholars examine the concepts of symmetry, rotations, reflections, translation, dialations, and tessellations and apply them to indigenous art. They also do Internet research and create artwork (painting, pottery, computer graphic...
Curated OER
Rotations and reflections
In this rotations activity, students complete problems having to do with shapes and their rotations, reflections, symmetry, translations, and more. Students complete 6 problems.
Curated OER
Reflections
Students investigate image and pre-image. In this geometry lesson, students identify the reflection and rotation of different shape on a coordinate plane. They identify similarities and differences of image and pre-image of a reflection.
Curated OER
Symmetry of Road Signs
Students identify symmetry in road signs. In this geometry lesson, students explore objects in the real world for symmetry. They perform translation, rotation and reflection.
Curated OER
Miras, Mirrors, and Kaleidoscopes!
High schoolers use hands-on activities to explore transformations. They view a video segment that demonstrate how M. C. Escher employed geometry and transformations to create so many of his famous drawings.

The Geometric Effect of Some Complex Arithmetic 1
Translating complex numbers is as simple as adding 1, 2, 3. In the ninth lesson in a 32-part series, the class takes a deeper look at the geometric effect of adding and subtracting complex numbers. The resource leads pupils into what it...
Curated OER
Reflection in a Line
In this reflection of a line worksheet, 10th graders identify 10 different reflections of lines as stated in each. First, they determine the image of a point under a reflection across the x-axis. Then, students find x, y, and z of a...
Curated OER
Reflections over Two Lines & Dilations
Students create reflections over two lines. For this reflections worksheet, students compare and contrast reflections over parallel and intersecting lines. They dilate figures and investigate the effect of the dilation using measurement...
Curated OER
Composition of Reflections
Students perform reflections and translations of polygons. In this geometry lesson, students perform reflection in two parallel lines. They use Cabri to observe the transformation and rotations of each shape.
Curated OER
Geometry, Measurement & Reasoning
Learners complete worksheets involving rotational symmetry. In this geometry lesson, students complete worksheets to identify rotational symmetry and rotations. They compare and contrast rotated figures. Learners examine the relationship...
Curated OER
Reflections (2)
In this graphing worksheet, students focus on reflections. Students use rotations to create 6 geometric figures that are represented on the x or y axis.
Curated OER
Transformations: Reflections
Students perform transformations on their graphs. In this algebra lesson, students identify the pre-image and image. They find and identify congruent shapes and isometry.
