Leaping Lizards
1.1 Leaping Lizards Task
Today you will be animating the lizard by transforming it in various ways. The original lizard was created by plotting the following anchor points on the coordinate grid and then letting a computer program draw the lizard. The anchor points are always listed in this order: tip of nose, center of left front foot, belly, center of left rear foot, point of tail, center of rear right foot, back, center of front right foot.
Original lizard anchor points:
{ (12,12), (15,12), (17,12), (19,10), (19,14), (20,13), (17,15), (14,16) }
For each activity:
-Plot the anchor points for the lizard in its new location.
-Connect the pre-image and image anchor points with line segments or circular arcs, whichever best illustrates the relationship between them.
