What is the “Rotation 180 Degrees About the Origin Worksheet”?
This worksheet will explain rotations of points or figures in 180 degrees about the origin. This will be a guide on how to move the points with respect to the origin.
This worksheet will also be a source of additional knowledge to be used in the future mathematical concepts.
How will the “Rotation 180 Degrees About the Origin Worksheet” help you?
This worksheet will help you in learning more about the properties of the Coordinate Plane. This will also evaluate learnings of individuals through recalling concepts, giving new points, plotting the new figures and then creating their own figures.
What happens when we rotate figures about the origin?
When we rotate figures about the origin, its points move which forms the same figure but in different positions within the coordinate plane.
Instructions on using the “Rotation 180 Degrees About the Origin”
Use this worksheet to understand and learn more about the properties of points and the Coordinate Plane. After a short discussion, a 5-item true or false activity will be given to recall concepts of rotating figures and points.
Next, a 10-item math drill will be asked to rotate the points 180 degrees about the origin.
A Coordinate Plane with an existing figure will also be asked to be rotated by the learner.
Lastly, the learner will be asked to create a three point figure and rotate it 180 degrees about the origin.
Conclusion
The knowledge on rotating figures and points 180 degrees about the origin is an essential one to proceed at higher mathematical concepts.
Being able to master the plotting and rotating techniques will also help the learner to understand the concepts better in the future topics of mathematics.
