Lesson 8: Practice Problems

Problem 1

For the figure shown:

  1. Rotate segment around point .

  2. Rotate segment around point .

  3. Rotate segment around point .

A line segment CD with midpoint M and a point off the line, E with is up and to the left of D.

Problem 2

Here is an isosceles right triangle:

Draw these three rotations of triangle together.

  1. Rotate triangle 90 degrees clockwise around .

  2. Rotate triangle 180 degrees around .

  3. Rotate triangle 270 degrees clockwise around .

Right isosceles triangle A B C has horizonatl side A B with point A to the right of B, and has vertical side B C with point C directly above point B.

Problem 3 From Unit 1 Lesson 5

Each graph shows two polygons and . In each case, describe a sequence of transformations that takes to .

  1. Blue trapezoid with vertexes A (-3, 3), B (-4, 1), C (-2, -1), and D (-2, 2). Green trapezoid with vertexes A' (3, 2), B' (4, 0), C' (2, -2), D' (2, 1)
  2. Blue figure with vertexes A (-4, 1), B (-1, 0) C (1, 3), D (-2, 3). Green figure with vertexes A' (4, 4), B' (3, 1), C' (6, -1), and D' (6, 2)

Problem 4 From Unit 1 Lesson 4

Lin says that she can map Polygon to Polygon using only reflections. Do you agree with Lin? Explain your reasoning.

Two identical quadrilateral labeled A and B on a square grid are in different orientations and positions. The square grid has 8 horizontal units and 8 vertical units. Starting from the bottom left vertex, polygon A is located 1 unit right and 4 units down from the edges of the square grid. The second vertex is 2 units right and 3 units up from the first vertex. The third vertex is 3 units right and 1 unit up from the first vertex. the fourth vertex is 2 units right from the first vertex. Starting from the bottom vertex polygon B is located 5 units right and 7 units down from the edges of the square grid. The second vertex is 1 unit left and 2 units up from the first vertex. the third vertex is 3 units up from the first vertex. The fourth vertex is 2 units right and 3 units up from the first vertex.
