This example demonstrates transformations of shapes, specifically reflection and translation. Key mathematical concepts include reflection and translation. Using GeoGebra commands such as Polygon, Mirror, and Translate, a series of transformed shapes can be constructed. Suitable for middle school students learning geometric transformations.

GeoGebra Commands & Parameters

  1. Polygon(A, B, C) → poly1, c, a, b
  2. Mirror(A, y = x - 1) → A'
  3. Mirror(B, y = x - 1) → B'
  4. Mirror(C, y = x - 1) → C'
  5. Polygon(A', B', C') → poly1', c', a', b'
  6. Translate(A', (-5, -4)) → A''
  7. Translate(B', (-5, -4)) → B''
  8. Translate(C', (-5, -4)) → C''
  9. Polygon(A'', B'', C'') → poly1'', c'', a'', b''
