|Algebra Rule |

|Essential Questions: |Curriculum Goals/Objectives |

|How does the positioning of the ones, zeros and negatives in the matrix rule affect the transformation? |G.CO.2 Represent transformations in the plane using, e.g., |

| |transparencies and geometry software; describe |

| |transformations as functions that take points in the plane |

| |as inputs and give other points as outputs. Compare |

| |transformations that preserve distance and angle to those |

| |that do not (e.g. translation versus horizontal stretch). |

| |G.CO.3 Given a rectangle, parallelogram, trapezoid, or regular |

| |polygon, describe the rotations and reflections that carry it |

| |onto itself. |

| |G.CO.4 Develop definitions of rotations, reflections, and |

| |translations in terms of angles, circles, perpendicular lines, |

| |parallel lines, and line segments. |

| |G.CO.5 Given a geometric figure and a rotation, reflection, or |

| |translation, draw the transformed figure, e.g. graph paper, |

| |tracing paper, or geometry software. Specify a sequence |

| |of transformations that will carry a given figure onto |

| |another. |

| |G.CO.6 Use geometric descriptions of rigid motions to transform |

| |figures and to predict the effect of a given rigid motion on |

| |a given figure; given two figures, use the definition of |

| |congruence in terms of rigid motions to decide if they are |

| |congruent |

| |G.CO.7 Use the definition of congruence in terms of rigid motions |

| |to show that two triangles are congruent if and only if |

| |corresponding pairs of sides and corresponding pairs of |

| |angles are congruent |

| |G.CO.8 Explain how the criteria for triangle congruence (ASA, |

| |SAS, and SSS) follow from the definition of congruence |

| |in terms of rigid motions. |

| |G.SRT.1.a Verify experimentally the properties of dilations given by |

| |a center and a scale factor: |

| |a. A dilation takes a line not passing through the |

| |center of the dilation to a parallel line, and leaves a |

| |line passing through the center unchanged |

| |G.SRT.1.b Verify experimentally the properties of dilations given by |

| |a center and a scale factor: |

| |b. The dilation of a line segment is longer or shorter in |

| |the ratio given by the scale factor. |

| |G.SRT.2 Given two figures, use the definition of similarity in terms |

| |of similarity transformations to decide if they are similar; |

| |explain using similarity transformations the of similarity |

| |for triangles as the equality of all corresponding pairs of |

| |angles and the proportionality of all corresponding pairs of |

| |sides. |

| |G.MG.3 Apply geometric methods to solve design problems (e.g., |

| |designing an object or structure to satisfy physical |

| |constraints or minimize cost; working with typographic |

| |grid systems based on ratios).* |
