Sequencing the Basic Rigid Motions


Description

Topic B is a critical foundation to the understanding of congruence. All the lessons of Topic B demonstrate to students the ability to sequence various combinations of rigid motions while maintaining the basic properties of individual rigid motions. Lesson 7 begins this work with a sequence of translations.

Students verify experimentally that a sequence of translations has the same properties as a single translation. Lessons 8 and 9 demonstrate sequences of reflections and translations and sequences of rotations. The concept of sequencing a combination of all three rigid motions is introduced in Lesson 10; this paves the way for the study of congruence in the next topic.
