This eBook introduces the subject of transformation as it relates to translations, reflections, rotations and enlargements either as individual operations or composite operations. In this eBook we illustrate each of these translations using right-angled triangles, but the principles developed extend to all 2D shapes as well as to 3D shapes using extensions.This eBook is part of our range of Grades 6, 7 & 8 math eBooks that are aligned with the North American math curriculum.Our Grades 6, 7 & 8 math eBooks comprise three principle sections. These are, notably:

Number and Algebra

Geometry and Measures

Handling DataIn addition, there exists a Publications Guide.Our maths eBooks are produced such as that as well as a Publications Guide, and three principle publications corresponding to the principle sections (Number and Algebra, Geometry and Measures and Handling Data) there are individual modules produced within each principle section which are published as eBooks.Transformations is a module within the Geometry and Measures principle section our Grades 6, 7 & 8 publications. It is one module out of a total of seven modules in that principle section, the others being:

2D Shapes and 3D Solids

Loci, Constructions and 3D Co-ordinates

Angles, Bearings and Scale Drawings

Pythagoras' Theorem, Trigonometry and Similarity

Measures and Measurement
