Outcomes

8.MG.3

The student will apply translations and reflections to polygons in the coordinate plane.

8.MG.3a

Given a preimage in the coordinate plane, identify the coordinates of the image of a polygon that has been translated vertically, horizontally, or a combination of both.

8.MG.3d

Sketch the image of a polygon that has been translated vertically, horizontally, or a combination of both.

8.MG.3g

Identify and describe transformations in context (e.g., tiling, fabric, wallpaper designs, art).
