Which term best describes a translation?
In this section, students will be able to describe the effect of reflections on two dimensional figures using coordinates.[br][br]For the reflection transformation, we will focus on two different line of reflections. Reflection over x-axis and y-axis. Below you are provided with three figures. The original pre-image (brown) and reflection over the y-axis (red) and over the x-axis (blue). Discover how figures are reflected over the x and y-axis by playing around with the original figure. Reshape the figure, move the figure around to learn. Have fun! [br][br]Also think about mirrors, since we are going to work with coordinate points, what do you think will happen to the points when you reflect? Hint: Think about mirror, what happens when you raise your left arm, what do you see happening in a mirror?
Which term best describes a reflection?
Rearrange the triangle so point A is at (4, 2). What is the point of reflection over the y-axis for point A? Now translate point A, 2 units up. What is the new point of reflection for over the y-axis for point A?
Relating to question 2, what difference do you notice about the coordinate points before and after the reflection over the y-axis?
The x coordinate switches sign. (becomes negative)
Rearrange the triangle so point B is at (8, 4). What is the point of reflection over the x-axis for point B? Now translate point B, 2 units to the left. What is the new point of reflection for over the y-axis for point B?
Relating to question 4, what difference do you notice about the coordinate points before and after the reflection over the x-axis?
the y-coordinate becomes negative / changes

In this section, students will be able to describe the effect of rotations on two dimensional figures using coordinates.[br][br]For the rotation transformation, we will focus on two rotations. We will rotate our original figures 90 degrees counter-clockwise (brown figure) and 180 degrees (blue figure) about the origin (point O). [br][br]Spend some time to play around with the original figure and see if you can notice the pattern with the change in coordinate points for the new figures of 90 and 180 degree rotations. Feel free to try different degrees for rotation, change it to counterclockwise to see how the figures and coordinates change. Have fun!

A copy of a figure is called ________.
Rigid transformations (translation, reflection, rotation) produce __________ figures.
Rearrange the triangle so point A is at (4, 6), point B is at (8, 6) and point C is at (6, 2). [br]a) What are the new coordinate points of A'2, B'2 and C'2 after a 90 degree counterclockwise (270 degree clockwise) rotation? [br]b) What pattern you notice between the original points and the rotated points?[br]
a) A'2 (-6, 4); B'2 (-6, 8); C'2 (-2, 6)[br]b) the coordinates switched and the x become negative.
