Illustrative Mathematics: g.co Reflections and Isosceles Triangles
This task has students link their intuitive notions of symmetries of a triangle with statements proving that said triangle is unmoved by applying certain rigid transformations. The mechanism through which students do this is via...

Illustrative Mathematics: g.co Reflections and Equilateral Triangles Ii
This task examines some of the properties of reflections of the plane which preserve an equilateral triangle. The task gives students a chance to see the impact of these reflections on an explicit object and to see that the reflections...
