Properties of Rigid Motion Transformations

In this lesson, students will explore transformations called rigid motions, which move a figure without changing its size or shape. They will learn about three types of rigid motions: translations (sliding), reflections (flipping), and rotations (turning). These transformations create new figures, called images, that are congruent to the original figures, meaning their size and shape remain identical. Through examples, students will see how rigid motions preserve the length and angles of figures, ensuring that the image is the same as the pre-image, regardless of how it is moved around.

Projections

Learn how rigid motions (translations, rotations and reflections) work, applied to real world shapes and images! It's like you are solving a puzzle, determining the correct actions to be performed in order to get the correct final image, perfectly overlapping the given target.
