GEO-G.CO.5

Given a geometric figure and a rotation, reflection, or translation, draw the transformed figure. Specify a sequence of transformations that will carry a given figure onto another.

Predecessors

  • NY-8.G.2

Notes

  • Include point reflections.
  • A translation displaces every point in the plane by the same distance (in the same direction) and can be described using a vector.
  • A rotation requires knowing the center/point and the measure/direction of the angle of rotation.
  • A line reflection requires a line and the knowledge of perpendicular bisectors.
  • Instructional strategies may include graph paper, tracing paper, and geometry software.
  • Singular transformations that are equivalent to a sequence of transformations may be utilized, such as a glide reflection. However, glide reflections are not an expectation of the course.
