What is our TEKS?
TEKS 8.10C:
The student will explain the effect of rotations limited to 90°, 180°, 270°, and 360° as applied to two‐dimensional shapes on a coordinate plane using an algebraic representation.
Rotations, TEKS 8.10C (R)

It's time for our lesson . . .
Rotations
You can take notes in your journal or lined paper, but be sure to pay attention to the IXL video.
5
Open Ended
What is one thing that you learned from the video?
6
Rotations:
A rotation is a type of transformation that takes each point in a figure and rotates (turns) it a certain number of degrees around a given point.
7
Multiple Choice
Which word can be used to describe a rotation?
Flip
Turn
Slide
Stretch
8
Open Ended
Where do we see rotations in the real world?
9
Key Features:
Rotations change the orientation (the direction it faces) of a figure.
The image remains the same size and shape (congruent).
10
Direction:
Rotations turn in two directions: Clockwise (CW) or Counterclockwise (CCW).
11
Multiple Choice
The clock is going in the __________ direction.
Clockwise
Counterclockwise
12
Multiple Choice
The clock is going in the __________ direction.
clockwise
counter-clockwise
13
Degrees:
In 8th Math, figures rotate in increments of 90 degree turns.
1 quadrant is 90 degrees.
A full circle is 360 degrees.
14
Multiple Choice
How many degrees is a quadrant?
90 degrees
180 degrees
270 degrees
360 degrees

Multiple Choice
What is the angle of rotation for this counter-clockwise rotation about the origin?
90°
180°
270°
360°
19
Center of Rotation:
The center of rotation is a designated point a figure will turn upon. In 8th Math, that point is the origin, (0, 0).

Multiple Choice
What does (x, y) --> (y, -x) mean?
Switch the x and y coordinates and make the x-coordinate a negative number.
Switch the x and y coordinates and change the sign of the x-coordinate.

27
Multiple Choice
True or False: 360 degree rotation = 0 degree rotation
True
False
28
Multiple Choice
A figure was transformed on a coordinate grid using the rule (x, y) ---> (-x, -y). Which of the following describes this transformation?
A reflection across the x-axis
A reflection across the y-axis
A 90 degree clockwise rotation about the origin
A 180 degree clockwise rotation about the origin
29
Multiple Choice
Rotate the point (5, 5) around the origin 180 degrees counterclockwise. State the image of the point.
Rule: (x, y) ---> (-x, -y)
(5, -5)
(5, 5)
(-5, 5)
(-5, -5)
