Teacher Lesson Plan

Lesson: Day 6 – Supplement Lesson
Graphing and Describing 90° and 270° Rotations about the Origin (0, 0)

CC Standards
8.G.3 Describe the effect of dilations, translations, rotations, and reflections on two-dimensional
figures using coordinates.

Objective
TSW… Graph and Describe 90° and 270° rotations about the origin.

Mathematical Practices
#1 Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them.
#6 Attend to precision.
#7 Look for and make use of structure.
#8 Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning.

Note to teachers:
Be sure to teach this lesson from the PowerPoint, not the student notes. You will be missing part of the
lesson otherwise.

Teacher Input
Bellwork: Review bellwork.
Homework: Review important problems assigned the previous night.
Introduction: Introduce as directed on the PowerPoint.
Lesson: Teach as directed in the PowerPoint. Be sure to look at the notes on each slide for additional
instruction and answers.

180 degree rotations (3:58) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ZeeDYIlNFk

90 degree clockwise rotations (13:33) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LwGmA9F3hbw
90 degree CCW rotations (12:57) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Q70ZHVFKPc

Note… The above videos are included in the PowerPoint so that you can show them to your students if you are able to.
The last two videos are longer. There is a portion at the end of the video that you can skip if necessary.

Using RULES to Rotate 90° about the Origin.

90 º CLOCKWISE

RULE:
 Swap the x and y values;
 Change the sign of the 2nd coordinate
to the opposite.
(x, y) → (y, -x)
EXAMPLE:
Pre-image Image
A(3, 5) A’(5, -3)
B(4, 1) B’(1, -4)
C(2, 1) C’(1, -2)

90º COUNTER-Clockwise

RULE:
 Swap the x and y values;
 Change the sign of the 1st coordinate
to the opposite.
(x, y) → (-y, x)
EXAMPLE:
Pre-image Image
A(1, 2) A’(-2, 1)
B(2, 3) B’(-3, 2)
C(3, 1) C’(-1, 3)

Rules for Rotating 270º

 If asked to rotate 270° clockwise… use the rule for 90° CCW.

 If asked to rotate 270° counter-clockwise… use the rule for 90° clockwise.
