Using the first page of the investigation, find shapes in your Mathomat V7 that are regular, and the ones that are irregular. We use angles in the shapes.
We draw with Mathomat and learn to understand the difference between regular and irregular shapes. In activity two we learn to transform shapes through rotation, dilation, glide reflection and translation.
This activity helps to understand the mathematics underlying the drawing that we do with Mathomat. this is important for construction and design work. When we transform a shape by moving it to a new location without changing it's shape or size it is called an isometry or rigid transformation.
