Illustrative Mathematics: G Co Fixed Points of Rigid Motions
A rigid motion of the plane is a map of the plane to itself which preserves distances between points. The purpose of this task is to use fixed points as a tool for studying and classifying rigid motions of the plane, i.e., translations,...
