Illustrative Mathematics: G Co Seven Circles Ii
In this task, seven pennies are placed in a circle so that they are all touching one in the center and their neighbors. Students are asked to find as many rigid motions of the plane as they can which are symmetries of this configuration...

Illustrative Mathematics: G Co Symmetries of a Quadrilateral I
Suppose ABCD is a quadrilateral for which there is exactly one rotation, through an angle larger than 0 degrees and less than 360 degrees, which maps it to itself. Further, no reflections map ABCD to itself. What shape is ABCD? Aligns...

Illustrative Mathematics: G Co Symmetries of a Quadrilateral Ii
There is exactly one reflection and no rotation that sends the convex quadrilateral ABCD onto itself. What shape(s) could quadrilateral ABCD be? Explain. Aligns with G-CO.A.3.

Illustrative Mathematics: G Co Symmetries of Rectangles
This task examines the rigid motions which map a rectangle onto itself. The emphasis here is on careful reasoning using the definitions of reflections and rotations. Aligns with G-CO.A.3.
