Unit 6: Transformations

 

Common Core Standards:

  • Verify experimentally the properties of rotations, reflections, and translations: lines & line segments, angles, and parallel lines.   8.G.1
  • Understand that a two-dimensional figure is congruent to another if the second can be obtained from the first by a sequence of rotations, reflections, and translations; given two congruent figures, describe a sequence that exhibits the congruence between them.   8.G.2
  • Describe the effect of dilations, translations, rotations, and reflections on two-dimensional figures using coordinates.   8.G.3
  • Understand that a two-dimensional figure is similar to another if the second can be obtained from the first by a sequence of rotations, reflections, translations, and dilations; given two similar two-dimensional figures, describe a sequence that exhibits the similarity between them.   8.G.4

2008 Math Standards:
