Rotation Exploration
Lesson Goals:
1. Develop the formal definition of rotation.
2. Write a rule that describes a rotation on the coordinate plane.
3. Find the coordinates of the image or preimage of a figure after a rotation.
Make a conjecture.
What property of the pre-image is preserved after a rotation.
Based on your conjecture, is rotation a rigid transformation?
You are asked to define a rotation. What element will you include in your definition? Select all that apply.
