Demonstrate that two-dimensional polygons that are rotated, reflected, or translated are still congruent using area, perimeter, and length of sides on a coordinate plane.

Clarifications:

Essential Understandings

Concrete:

  • Model a rotation, reflection, or translation on the coordinate plane using manipulatives.
Representation:
  • Identify a rotation, reflection, or translation when it occurs on the coordinate plane.

Date Adopted or Revised: 06/14 Cluster: Understand congruence and similarity using physical models, transparencies, or geometry software. (Major Cluster)

Clusters should not be sorted from Major to Supporting and then taught in that order. To do so would strip the coherence of the mathematical ideas and miss the opportunity to enhance the major work of the grade with the supporting clusters.
