Mathematics 1.9 Apply transformation geometry in solving problems
Key tips
- practice using transformations to reflect, translate, rotate, and enlarge shapes
- practise identifying the transformations used to create symmetrical patterns
- practice describing transformations fully in geometrical terms:
- Translation distance and the direction of the movement
- Reflection mirror line
- Rotation centre, angle of rotation, and the direction
- Enlargement centre and scale factor.
- You are expected to be familiar with:
- symmetry of shapes and patterns
- describing any symmetries
- identifying invariant points
