A Matter of Interpretation
Was the fatal crash of EgyptAir Flight 990 cause by mechanical failure or was it an act of sabotage? The crux of the debate and the subsequent controversy centers on translation of an Arabic phrase uttered by the pilot. The New York...
Curated OER
Transformation
In this recognizing reflection, translation, and rotation of figures worksheet, students observe figures on grid paper, and read and follow directions to reflect, translate, and rotate them. Students solve 3 problems.
Curated OER
Unit 14 - Loci and Transformations
In this transformations worksheet, students solve 25 short answer problems. Students dilate, reflect, and translate points and figures in the coordinate plane. Students determine scale factors and lines of symmetry of figures.
Curated OER
Reflections
Tenth graders perform reflections on different geometric shapes. In this geometry worksheet,students define the concept of geometric reflections and find the coordinates of the reflection on a coordinate grid.
Curated OER
Geometry Practice Exam
In this reflections and rotations worksheet, learners reflect and rotate lines in graphs and draw lines of symmetry through patterns. Students complete 24 problems.
Curated OER
Geometry Exam
In this reflections and symmetry worksheet, students draw lines of symmetry in shapes and patterns and reflect letters over lines in graphs. Students complete 20 problems.
Curated OER
Reflections
In this reflections learning exercise, 10th graders solve and complete 34 different problems that include determining various reflections. First, they trace the figure and draw its reflection in each line. Then, 10th graders use the...
Curated OER
Reflections in the Plane
Have your class explore the concept of reflections as they use Cabri Jr. to construct a triangle and reflect it over a line. Learners reflect shapes across the coordinate plane and across the lines y = x and y = -x.
Curated OER
Reflections (4)
In this reflections instructional activity, students reflect three sided and four sided shapes across a graph. Students complete 6 reflection problems.

Transform Your Geometry into a Work of Art
Mathematicians utilize artwork to help illustrate the major ideas of transformations and tessellations. They visually identify transformations including reflections, rotations, and translations. They discuss how artists have used...
Curated OER
Reflection
Students examine how some transformations, such as reflections and rotations, do not change the figure itself, only its position or orientation.
Curated OER
Glide Reflections
In this glide reflection worksheet, students draw and answer questions about reflections of different shapes. Students answer 5 questions.
Curated OER
Geometric Transformations
This PowerPoint provides opportunities for students to explore geometric transformations. Students examine the position of figures in several photographs and identify each pair as reflections, rotations, or translations.
Curated OER
Transformation
Third graders investigate symmetry by reflecting objects in different angles. In this geometrical transformation lesson, 3rd graders define the terms translation, rotation and reflection in order to physically turn geometric...
Curated OER
Keeping in Shape
Third graders describe patterns in terms of reflection and rotation symmetry, and translations. They design and make a pattern which involves translation, reflection, or rotation. They demonstrate why a given tessellation covers the...
Curated OER
Coordinate Plane Transformations
Geometric transformations are explored by high schoolers. They will create a set of instructions for plotting coordinates representing an original transformation of a real-world figure. These instructions are shared with middle...
