This presentation will use interactive geometry software to investigate the problem of randomly flipping a figure on the coordinate plane and determining the generating isometries. The problem exposes students to the power of the major theorems of transformational geometry concerning isometries, a central theme in the Common Core State Standards.
Presentation Format: 9-12 Session
Grade Band Audience: 9 to 12
