Transformations - Group 2

For this discussion your group must answer the following essential questions:

·    How do you transform geometric figures on a coordinate plane?
·    How do we apply specific transformations?
·   How do we identify transformations in a plane using function notation?
·   What properties are preserved under transformations?
·    How do we use notation to describe/represent transformations?
·    What types of symmetry appear in transformations?

Your responses must be clear, concise, and must contain explanations that appeal to all learning styles in our classroom. You can create explanations with notes, pictures and links to videos that may enhance the class understanding of the topic.

  2. Transformation:  Is a one­ to­ one mapping of 
    points in the plane to other points in the plane.
    to transform the geometric figures you must rotate the geometric figure so that it lines up with the other figure perfectly.

  3. Hey Devante base on the video: So how do you know that it is exactly 180 degrees when rotating the figure, and not another degree?

  5. Can you only rotate the figure clockwise, counterclockwise,or it doesn't really matter?

  6. Transformations isn't only about rotating their are others, We learn this is class and we review it today.

  7. I'm still confused about the relationship to notation and translation

  9. a translation of a graph, we mean a shift in its location such that every point of the graph is moved the same distance and in the same direction. Essentially, think of lifting the graph out of the paper, moving it around, and then placing it down at a new location.
