• TLF-IDA005461

This three lesson unit of work focuses on translations. Students apply and describe translations, reflections in an axis, and rotations about the origin to a point, sets of points, line segments, lines, and shapes using coordinates on the Cartesian plane including successive transformations; identify line and rotational ...

• TLF-IDA003275

This planning resource for Year 7 is for the topic of Transformation. Students describe translations, reflections and rotations and identify line (mirror) and rotational symmetries. They will extend their understanding of transformations through exploring transformations on the Cartesian plane.

• TLF-IDM016436

This is the third in a series of Syllabus bites related to transformations on the Cartesian plane. Students further their understanding of translation and reflection and explore relationships between these two transformations.

Unfurl the secret of symmetry used in kites to make them fly! A kite in geometry looks a lot like a kite in the sky. We see that a kite is a special quadrilateral in which one of its two diagonals (long and short) is also its axis of symmetry, and if you fold the kite along that diagonal, the two halves will match up exactly ...

• TLF-IDM016513

This is the second in a series of Syllabus bites related to transformations on the Cartesian plane. This Bite covers reflection of points.

• TLF-IDM012842

This is a website designed for both teachers and students that introduces some transformations of the plane using coordinates in the Cartesian plane. In particular, transformations, translations, reflections in an axis and rotations of multiples of 90 degrees are discussed. Coordinates are used to describe these transformations. ...

What is the difference between equilateral, isosceles and scalene triangles? See if you can find and classify triangles based on the definitions given in this maths video.

• TLF-IDM021838

This sequence of lessons explores the geometry of angles using real world contexts including the dynamics of folding and joints. Students investigate side lengths and angles, supported by using physical models and computer simulation. There are opportunities to develop geometric language and to highlight how mathematical ...

• TLF-IDM016684

This web-based, multimedia resource focuses on the geometry of the Stage 4 and Stage 5 Mathematics syllabus. It comprises 70 dynamic html worksheets, each exploring a different outcome in Stage 4 and Stage 5 geometry.

• TLF-IDA004917

In this lesson, students study the concept of triangle inequality, which determines if three positive numbers can serve as the side lengths of a triangle. Students experiment with various combinations of three natural numbers. They investigate whether these numbers can form a triangle and classify and construct the corresponding ...
