This lesson covers sequences of rigid motions, including translations, rotations, and reflections. It emphasizes the importance of using precise language to describe these transformations. Through various exercises, students learn to map shapes using different sequences of rigid motions, understanding how the order of transformations affects the outcome.

What is the primary focus of this lesson on sequences of rigid motions?

• Learning to perform transformations quickly

• Using precise language to describe sequences

• Memorizing formulas for transformations
