Transformation and congruence
Essential Mathematics Year 8
Introduction
As Kylie Minogue said it so well ... "I'm spinning around" ... which describes the video perfectly. It's dealing with Rotation!
This video continues the series I have been working on relating to Transformations of simple shapes. I have already dealt with Reflections and Translations. This video looks at how to rotate simple shapes.
I look at a number of examples of what is required to be able to rotate. I show how to use a simple piece of paper to rotate something before moving onto other more complex shapes.
A trip through Rotational Symmetry and we head into the wonderful world of GeoGebra. It's a great piece of software and can be found here: https://www.geogebra.org/geometry?lang=en-AU
So much fun was had in making this video. I hope you enjoy it!
There are no current errors with this video ... phew!
