Translations and Rotations
Section 12-1
| Activity Name | Activity Description |
|---|---|
| TransmoGrapher | Students input integer values used by the applet to translate, reflect and rotate a two-dimensional figure on the coordinate plane. |
| Floor Tiles | Students use a graphical interface to deform a square into a general quadrilateral tile pattern. Discussion can focus on the translations and rotations necessary to generate the pattern. |
| Tessellate! | Students use a graphical interface to deform regular polygons into complex interlocking tile patterns. Discussion can focus on the translations and rotations necessary to generate the pattern. |
| Slope Slider | Students use translations to manipulate the slope and intercept values of a linear function of the form f(x)=mx+b as plotted in the cartesian coordinate system. |
