Educational details

Educational value
  • Students find the coordinates of image points after reflection in the axes, using algebra to generalise results. They learn the notation commonly used to refer to image points after transformation. Dynamic geometry activities assist students to conceptualise the concept of reflection and to visualise the effects on coordinates of points.
