﻿Transformations

Our group has been working on Transformations. We demonstrated each of the transformations in a different scene. Our example for rotation was rotating a pizza 180 degrees in an oven so it cooked thoroughly. On the pizza, the pepperoni created a right triangle, and when we rotated the pizza, the triangle also rotated, showng evidence for our calculations. When we demonstrated a reflection, we used the scenario that a t-shirt was being enhanced with an iron-on, which needed to be flipped over an axis so that the desired image was created when we flipped it onto the shirt. Our problem for translations was to move a house, without changing the size or shape, to a new location. Dilation was demonstrated by drawing a shape on an inflated balloon, and comparing the size difference when the balloon was deflated.
