Investigate the Rigid Motions of Reflection, Rotation, Translation, and Dilation

In this transformations and translations in Geometry worksheet, learners use geometric shapes and grids to translate six transformations in each of two activities.

In this rigid transformation activity, students follow directions to translate, reflect or rotate a figure in a coordinate plane. Examples and explanations are provided at the beginning of the document. This two-page activity contains 16...

Have your geometers take a huge leap forward in their understanding of rigid motion transformations. Given a pre-image and a final image, learners must precisely describe the transformation that moves from the first image to the next....

Young geometers investigate two-dimensional figures using coordinate grids. They identify polygons and draw examples of their reflection, rotation, and translation on a coordinate grid. And they complete a worksheet practicing examples...

An instructive lesson provides the basics on how to perform rotations on the coordinate plane. The handout also covers rotating about a point other than the origin and how to perform a series of transformations. 

Show your class how to rotate a figure 90 degrees clockwise around the origin of a coordinate plane. The lecturer in this video explains the concepts and steps involved in reflecting a figure across the y-axis. Consider providing this...

Demonstrate how to rotate a figure around the origin of a coordinate plane. The instructor in this video tutorial explains the concept deliberately, showing how to complete the rotation as she presents the information. After she finishes...

Pupils who view this tutorial will gain a better understanding of how to rotate a figure around the origin of a coordinate plane. This video covers how to rotate clockwise and counterclockwise to achieve the same purpose. Show this video...

The nice thing about technology is that it helps us visualize things better than just on paper. The video shows the dilation of a rectangle among the four different quadrants and how the coordinates change each move. 

Show your class how to rotate a figure 90 degrees clockwise around the origin of a coordinate plane. The lecturer explains the concepts and steps involved in reflecting a figure across the y-axis. Consider providing this for learners as...
