Today Carson and I discussed reflections. We drew a picture of a triangle and reflected it over a pencil. We discussed how the figure's angle measures and side lengths are congruent. We noticed though that the x-values became the opposite. Then we used the white board to draw a polygon. This time we reflected it over the x-axis and noticed all the y-values became opposite. We confirmed that x-axis reflections cause y's to become opposite, while y-axis reflections cause x's to become opposite. We practiced writing the rules to describe these transformations. Carson did a great job today!
