Reflections and Translations #2
Does Order Matter?
1. Describe a sequence of transformations that will take Figure A onto Figure B.
2. If you reverse the order of your sequence, will the reverse sequence still take A onto B?
3. Describe a sequence of transformations that will take Figure A onto Figure C.
4. If you reverse the order of your sequence, will the reverse sequence still take A onto C?
GeoGebra Tools
You task is to move Polygon A. (Polygon B and C are locked)
To Translate:
1) Create a vector by clicking on 
and plotting two points
2) To translate, select 
a) Then click the center of Polygon A
b) Then click on the center of the Vector you created.
To Reflect:
1) Create a line by on 
and plotting two points (or just use the lines that are already drawn)
2) To reflect, select 
a) Then click the center of the Polygon
b) Then click on the center of the Line
and plotting two points
2) To translate, select
a) Then click the center of Polygon A
b) Then click on the center of the Vector you created.
To Reflect:
1) Create a line by on and plotting two points (or just use the lines that are already drawn)
2) To reflect, select
a) Then click the center of the Polygon
b) Then click on the center of the Line1. Describe a sequence of transformations that will take Figure A onto Figure B. 2. If you reverse the order of your sequence, will the reverse sequence still take A onto B?
3. Describe a sequence of transformations that will take Figure A onto Figure C. 4. If you reverse the order of your sequence, will the reverse sequence still take A onto C?
