572- Prove It! . . . With Rigid Motion Transformations

Friday, April 17, 2015: 2:45 PM-4:00 PM
258 C (BCEC)

 

Lead Speaker:
John Ashurst
Co-Speaker:
Lindsay A. Gold


 

Participants will be presented with pairs of geometric figures. Through exploration, we will devise strategies for using one or more rigid motion transformations to prove, or disprove, congruency. Along the way, we will analyze the merits of paper folding, compass-straight edge, and handheld technology as we perform the various constructions.
