Transformations Project: company logos

(click the picture to see it larger)
You'll need to find an example of each of the four transformations (rotation, reflection, translation, dilation) in company logos. You can take your own pictures around town or use google images, but you may NOT use Chevron, Target, BP, or McDonalds.

Once you have the four images, place them one in each quadrant of a geogebra (download from http://www.geogebra.org/ ) file as I have done here.

Then, use the coordinate grid in geogebra and the transformation tools to figure out the transformation rule for each one. Type each rule directly into your geogebra file.

• Pre-AP students must include all FOUR transformation rules. 
• Regular geometry students may write the rules for whichever TWO transformations they choose.

Work individually, please.

When you finish, please take a print screen of your geogebra screen, making sure that all images and transformations rules show at once. Then go into Paint and hist "paste" or Control V. Save the image as "logo_[your name]." Then, put it in my drop box: S:\\NTHS\shared\students\Holland Drop Box.

If you need to practice and learn more about how the transformations work, try these websites:

Also practice using the transformation tools in geogebra - you'll need to know how to use them for your project (which I'll tell you about later).

Here's the rubric:
