Transformations: Understanding Translations on the Coordinate Plane

In this math lesson, we'll be focusing on transformations, specifically translations. This lesson is perfect for 7th, 8th, or 9th grade students, and is great for any Geometry unit on transformations. We'll be covering important concepts related to translations and providing examples to help you understand this topic.
To supplement your learning, we've also created a corresponding worksheet which you can find at the following link: www.teacherspa...

Aligned with common core standards 7.G.1, 8.G.1.4 8.G.A.3. Understand that a two-dimensional figure is congruent to another if the second can be obtained from the first by a sequence of rotations, reflections, and translations; given two congruent figures, describe a sequence that exhibits the congruence between them. Florida’s 8th Math B,E.S.T. standards MA.8.GR.2 Understand similarity and congruence using models and transformations. MA.8.GR.2.1 Given a preimage and image generated by a single transformation, identify the transformation that describes the relationship. MA.8.GR.2.3 Describe and apply the effect of a single transformation on two-dimensional figures using coordinates and the coordinate plane.
