Domain - Similarity, Right Triangles, and Trigonometry
Cluster - Understand similarity in terms of similarity transformations.
[MII.G-SRT.A.1] - Verify experimentally the properties of dilations given by a center and a scale factor:
- Dilation
A transformation that moves each point along the ray through the point emanating from a fixed center, and multiplies distances from the center by a common scale factor.
[MI.G-CO.A.5] -
Given a geometric figure and a rotation, reflection, or translation, draw the transformed figure using, e.g., graph paper, tracing paper, or geometry software. Specify a sequence of transformations that will carry a given figure onto another.
[MII.G-SRT.A.2] -
Given two figures, use the definition of similarity in terms of similarity transformations to decide if they are similar; explain using similarity transformations the meaning of similarity for triangles as the equality of all corresponding pairs of angles and the proportionality of all corresponding pairs of sides.
