Math 8B unit two transformations and congruence less than eight congruent figures
In Unit 2 of Math 8B, you will learn about transformations and congruence with figures that are less than eight congruent figures.
Transformations involve the movement or change in the position, orientation, or size of a figure. This can include translations, rotations, reflections, and dilations. You will learn how to perform these transformations on figures and understand how the coordinates of the points change.
Congruence refers to the equality in size and shape between two or more figures. You will learn about different criteria, or tests, to determine if two figures are congruent. These criteria include the Side-Side-Side (SSS), Side-Angle-Side (SAS), Angle-Side-Angle (ASA), and Angle-Angle-Side (AAS) congruence tests.
In this unit, you will explore these concepts using figures that have less than eight congruent sides. This means that the figures may have different shapes or lengths for their sides, but they can still be congruent if they satisfy the congruence criteria.
You will have the opportunity to practice applying these concepts and criteria to solve problems and prove congruence between figures. This unit will provide you with a solid foundation in transformations and congruence, which are fundamental concepts in geometry.
