| Slide Number 1 | Hello everybody.
Welcome to this tutorial on Symmetrical Transformation in Geogebra |
| Slide Number 2
Learning Objectives |
In this tutorial we will learn Symmetrical transformations such as
and also learn to
|
| Slide Number 3
Pre-requisites |
We assume that you have the basic working knowledge of Geogebra
If not, For relevant tutorials on Geogebra. Please visit our website |
| Slide Number 4
System Requirement |
To record this tutorial I am using
Ubuntu Linux OS Version 11.10 Geogebra Version 3.2.47.0 |
| Slide Number 5
GeoGebra Tools used in this tutorial |
We will use the following Geogebra tools
|
| slide Number 6
Definition of Transformation |
Symmetrical transformation of a geometric figure is - A change in its position, size or shape on a coordinate plane Original figure is called 'Object' Transformed figure is called 'Image' |
| Slide Number 7
Reflection symmetry |
Reflection symmetry
Is also called as Line symmetry A type of symmetry where one half is the reflection of the other half You could fold the image and have both halves match exactly |
| Switch to GeoGebra window
Dash home >>Media Apps>>Under Type >>Education>>Geogebra |
Let's Switch to GeoGebra window
Dash home >>Media Apps>>Under Type >>Choose Education>> and Geogebra |
| Click on Close button on Algebric view |
For this tutorial I am closing the Algebric view Click on Close button on Algebric view |
| Let's start with “Line of symmetry” | |
| Click on “Polygon” tool >> To Construct a triangle | First let's construct an equilateral triangletriangle
Select “Regular Polygon” tool from toolbar. |
| Click on drawing pad
Points 'A' ,'B' >>enter 3 click Ok |
Click on drawing pad points 'A' ,'B', and enter 3 for the number of sides. An equilateral triangle 'ABC' is drawn |
| Select “Perpendicular Bisector Tool” >> click on side AC | Let's draw a perpendicular bisector to one of the sides of the triangle
Select “Perpendicular Bisector Tool” and click on side AC |
| Select the Point tool >> create a point D
Right click on point D >> select Trace ON Click on Reflect Object about Line |
Select the Point tool and create a point D .
Move the point D towards one of the vertices . Right click on point D and select Trace ON Select “Reflect Object about Line”tool from the tool bar |
| Click on the Point D | Click on the Point D
This will highlight Point D |
| Click on perpendicular Bisector | Click on perpendicular Bisector
This will produce reflected image D' on the other side of perpendicular bisector |
| 'D is mirror image of point 'D'
Set Trace On for the point D' | |
| Let us move the point D along the triangle using Move tool | |
| Click on the “Move” tool | Click on the first option under Move tool from the toolbar |
| Drag the object | Click on figure with the mouse.
Drag it tracing the triangle . Now release the mouse button. What do you notice ? Here perpendicular bisector is the line of symmetry D is the object and D' is the image |
| Let's reflect a semicircle about a line | |
| Click on the “Semicircle through Two points” tool >>Mark points E and F | Let's draw a semicircle
Click on the “Semicircle through Two points” tool Mark point E and F |
| Click on Segement Between two points>> Draw a line GH | Click on segment Between two Points
Mark points G and H A line is drawn |
| Right click on line GH>>Object properties >>Click on Style>>change Style | Let's change the object properties
Right click on line GH Click on Object properties Click on Style change Style |
| Click on Reflect Object about Line | Select “Reflect Object about Line” tool from the toolbar |
| Click on the semicircle EF | Click on the semicircle EF
This will highlight the semicircle EF |
| Click on line GH | Click on line GH
This will produce the reflected image E'F' on the other side of line GH What does the figure look like now ? It looks like a circle |
| Click on "Save As" >> type " Line-symmetry " in file
name >> click on save |
Let us save this file now
Click on “File”>> "Save As" I will type the file name as "Line-symmetry" and click on “Save” |
| Next, let us learn “Rotate Object around a Point by Angle” | |
| Slide Number 9
Definition of Rotation |
Definition of Rotation
A rotation is a transformation that turns a figure around a fixed center by an angle If the figure appears unchanged, then the figure has rotation symmetry You can rotate object at any degree measure Rotation can be clockwise and counterclockwise |
| Click on “File” >> New | Let's open a new Geogebra window
click on “File” >> New |
| Click on “Polygon” tool >> To Construct a Square | Let us construct a square 'ABCD'
click on “Regular Polygon” tool from the toolbar |
| Click on drawing pad and mark points 'A' and 'B' | Click on the drawing pad
Mark points 'A' and 'B' |
| A dialog box opens
Click OK |
A dialog box opens
Click on OK A square 'ABCD' is drawn |
| Click on Rotate Object around a Point by Angle | Click on “Rotate Object around a Point by Angle” tool |
| Click on the Square 'ABCD' | Click on the Square 'ABCD'
This will highlight the square |
| Click on the point | Next Click on any one of the vertices
I will click on 'A' |
| A dialog box opens | A dialog box opens |
| Type "60" in Angle field | Type “60” in the Angle field |
| Select "°" from first drop down list | Select "°" from first drop down list |
| Select the option "Clockwise" | Select the option “clockwise” |
| Click on OK | Click on OK
This will rotate the square clockwise at the point of selection with the angle of 60 The rotated image 'A`B`C` 'D' is formed |
| Let's move this figure aside using Move tool | |
| Next, let's “Dilate or enlarge object from point by factor” | |
| Slide Number 10
Dilation |
Dilation
|
| Draw a triangle 'ABC' | Let's draw a triangle Using the “Polygon”tool
E , F , G click on E again to complete the triangle |
| Click on New point tool>>Mark point 'H' | Click on New point tool and
Mark a point 'H' |
| Click on Dilate Object from Point by Factor tool | Click on “Dilate Object from Point by Factor” tool |
| Click on triangle 'EFG | Click on the triangle 'EFG'
This will highlight the triangle |
| Click on a point 'H' | Click on the point 'H' |
| A dialog box opens | A dialog box opens |
| Type "2">>click OK | Type 2 in the number field
Click on OK |
| This will dilate or enlarge the object twice | |
| Click on Segement Between two Points >> join points | Click on Segement Between two Points tool
join points H,E,E' join points H,G,G' join points H,F,F' |
| Here you can see that H is the point of dilation
You can enlarge object as number of times as you wish, by typing the value of Factor | |
| Click on "Save As" >> type " Dilate-triangle " in file
name >> click on save |
Let us save this file now
Click on “File”>> "Save As" I will type the file name as "Dilate-triangle" Click on “Save” with this we come to the tutorial |
| Slide Number 11
Summary |
Let's summarize
In this tutorial we learnt
|
| Slide Number 12
Assignment |
As an assignment I would like you to Draw a Pentagon Use Regular Polygon tool to draw(Hint:sides=5) Draw a Perpendicular bisector to one of the sides of the pentagon Create a point in side the pentagon Set trace On for the point Get reflection of the point about the perpendicular bisector Set trace On for the image point Trace the pentagon to see if you have selected the correct line of symmetry Rotate the original pentagon counter clockwise in 135° at a point Dilate the pentagon at a point by the factor of 3 |
| Show the output of the Assignment | The assignment should look like this |
