Target 2-E

 

Perform and describe single transformations of a figure.

 

Sample Question

Consider the transformation shown in the picture below.

  1. Describe in words what transformations occur to get from the original to the image.
  2. Create a transformation rule (or rules) that can be used to transform the points of the original to points of the image.
  3. Where would lower left corner of the bee be if the original had been translated 5 units to the right and 6 units down?

 

Sample Response

  1. The bee was rotated counterclockwise 90° about the origin.
  2. Looking at the lower left corner of the original bee, the coordinates are (−5, 3).
    That corner ends up at (−3, −5) . So the transformation rule appears to be
  3. The new coordinates would be (0, −3).
