In this transformations worksheet, students identify the coordinates of triangle MNO after completing three translations and one reflection. Students use the triangle MNO with given coordinates to complete each transformation on the same...

Comparing the movement of graphs geometrically when small changes are made to the parent function motivates this collaborative discussion on the transformations of functions to their various forms. Vertical and horizontal shifts due to...

Bank on geometry to line up the shot. The resource asks the class to determine the location to bank a cue ball in a game of billiards. Using their knowledge, class members determine where to hit the bumper to make a shot and discuss...

The task at hand is to partition a hexagon into two, four, and eight congruent figures. Make sure to give your wizards a sheet of triangle grid paper on which to decompose the hexagons. Have them explain which rotations, reflections, or...

Students analyze different polygons by shapes and sides. In this geometry instructional activity, students differentiate between similar and congruent polygons. They name the different polygons based on the number of sides.

In this figures and graphs review activity, 10th graders solve and complete 23 various types of problems that include identifying various figures and graphs. First, they name the transformation that maps the unshaded figure or preimage...

Students use video and the Internet to identify examples of bilateral and radial symmetry in the world around them. They create symmetrical reflection designs using pattern blocks and paper.

In this math worksheet, high schoolers practice their skills in constructing reflections of shapes that are on a grid. This worksheet has 13 problems for the students to solve, and includes an answer sheet.

In this transformations worksheet, 10th graders identify and complete 10 different problems that include various types of transformations. First, they label each figure with the correct term listed on the top. Students also identify and...

Two triangles are displayed on a coordinate plane. Youngsters apply a reflection and a translation to demonstrate their congruence. This exercise makes a terrific tool for teaching these concepts, or a way to assess learning.

Young mathematicians investigate the use of symmetry in graphic design. After first learning about reflection, translational, and rotational symmetry, children use this new knowledge to identify symmetry in letters of the...

In this transformation worksheet, 5th graders determine if a pair of figures are related by a slide, flip, or turn. The worksheet reviews rotation, reflection, and translation.

Students compare transformations of a quadratic function on a graph and determine equations of a quadratic functions based on a reflection. They graph a transformation of a function based on reflections. They etermine if a function is...

Third graders are introduced to different types of transformations. As a class, they describe how a stuffed animal slides across the floor and use themselves to demonstrate as well. Individually, they flip and turn in different...

In this transformation worksheet, students identify and solve 10 different problems that include various images. First, they determine whether each object illustrated is a mirror image or reflection of the other image in the problem....

Congruence and similarity apply to functions as well as polygons. Learners examine the effects of transformations on the shape of parabolas. They determine the transformation(s) that produce similar and congruent functions.

Which is the best reflection of them all? Given four diagrams, pupils determine which one shows the most accurate reflection of a quadrilateral. Two images provide the distances of each vertex from the line of reflection, as well as the...

Learners investigate the symmetries of a convex quadrilateral in a collaborative activity. Rigid motion and complements are explored as learners analyze different cases of reflections across a line.

Students practice moving different shaped objects through a series of transformations. In groups, they discuss other ways to manipulate the figure to achieve the same results. They solve multiple story problems in the same manner.

Students 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.

In this polygons and angles worksheet, 10th graders complete 5 different questions related to polygons and angles, in addition to symmetry and transformations. First, they define polygon and how they are named. Then, students define...

Ninth graders examine the Jewish culture from a variety of perspectives.  In this ethics lesson, 9th graders interview guest speakers on the subject of Jewish culture.  Students create group poems and murals around themes of...

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.

Students examine how some transformations, such as reflections and rotations, do not change the figure itself, only its position or orientation.
