Translating complex numbers is as simple as adding 1, 2, 3. In the ninth 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 pupils into what it takes to reflect across the real and complex axis. By the end, class members can determine the complex number to use to arrive at a desired translation.
