the first by a sequence of rotations, reflections, and translations; given two congruent figures, describe a sequence that exhibits
the congruence between them.
The student will be able to describe the effect of dilations, translations, rotations, and reflections on two-dimensional figures
using coordinates.
Evidence of Learning:
1. The student will rotate, reflect and translate rigid figures.
2. The student will identify two-dimensional congruent figures after they are rotated, reflected and translated. The student will
name the congruent parts.

Lesson 8.1: Have students complete the translation chart on page 432 and check for their understanding.
Practice several rotations with students. Have them identify what quadrant the new image or point is in.
Give students a polygon and its translation, and ask the students to describe the translation.
Pair students. Have one partner choose a parallelogram, draw it on the coordinate plane, describe its original position, rotate, translate, and
reflect the parallelogram several times, and list the steps. Challenge the second partner to return the parallelogram to its original location.
8.G.2 This standard is the students’ introduction to congruency. Congruent figures have the same shape and size. Translations, reflections
and rotations are examples of rigid transformations. A rigid transformation is one in which the pre-image and the image both have exactly the
same size and shape since the measures of the corresponding angles and corresponding line segments remain equal (are congruent).
