MATH 1351-703
Professor Petty

TEKS
- This is for the Fifth Grade Level.

(8) Geometry and spatial reasoning. The student

models transformations. The student is expected to:
(A) sketch the results of translations, rotations, and
reflections; and
(B) describe the transformation that generates one figure from
the other when given two congruent figures.

TRANSFORMATION
- Is the process of moving a shape to a
different location, but not changing
the size, area, angles, or side
lengths.
- Examples:
- Translation
- Reflection
- Rotation

EXAMPLE OF TRANSFORMATION

Reflection

Translation

Rotation

- This website focuses on the concept of
transformations and also allows you to
watch a video and take a quiz to
practice your knowledge based on this
concept if you are a member of this
website.

TRANSLATION
- Is a type of transformation in which
the shape of the image does not
change, but is slid or translated to
another location.
- Also known as slide.

EXAMPLE OF TRANSLATION

INTERACTIVE TRANSLATED FIGURE

- This website focuses on the concept of
translation and also allows you to watch
a video and to take a quiz to practice
your knowledge based on this concept if
you are a member of this website.

REFLECTION
- Is a type of transformation in which
the shape of the image does not
change, but is flipped or reflected
over a line of reflection creating
a mirror image.
- Also known as flip.

EXAMPLE OF REFLECTION

INTERACTIVE REFLECTED FIGURE

- This website focuses on the concept
of reflection and also allows you to
take a quiz to practice your
knowledge on this concept if you are
a member of this website.

ROTATION
- Is a type of transformation in which
the shape of the image does not
change, but the image is rotated at a
fixed point (the center of rotation)
by an angle given.
- Also known as turn.

EXAMPLE OF ROTATION

INTERACTIVE ROTATED FIGURE
