In this program we look at applications of transformations. We do this in the context of three real-world applications. In the first, we look at translations and rotations in the context of roller coaster rides. In the second example we look at translations in three-dimensional space in the context of cargo ships. In the third example, we look at the design of observatories to look at rotations, reflections, and symmetry.

Cargo ships transport tons of merchandise from one country to another and accounts for most of the global economy. Loading and unloading these ships requires a great deal of organization and provides an ideal example of three-dimensional translations.

The Eiffel Tower includes quite a number of exposed triangular trusses. The properties of triangles are used to explore and explain the frequent use of triangular trusses in many building. In particular, isosceles and equilateral triangular trusses are explored. In addition triangle postulates and similarity are explored and analyzed.

Topic

Geometry Basics

Definition

Congruence refers to figures or shapes that have the same size and shape.

Description

Congruence is a fundamental concept in geometry, indicating that two figures are identical in form and dimensions. This concept is essential for understanding geometric transformations and proving the properties of shapes. For instance, two triangles are congruent if their corresponding sides and angles are equal. Congruence is used in various real-world applications, such as engineering and architecture, to ensure precision and accuracy in design and construction.

Topic

Geometry Basics

Definition

Similarity refers to figures that have the same shape but not necessarily the same size.

Description

Similarity is a key concept in geometry, used to compare shapes and solve problems involving proportions. For example, two triangles are similar if their corresponding angles are equal and their corresponding sides are proportional. Understanding similarity helps in solving problems related to scaling, resizing, and geometric transformations. This concept is widely used in fields such as art, design, and architecture to create proportional and aesthetically pleasing structures.

Geometric Shapes

Description

Determine if two triangles, ABC and DEF, are congruent. Triangle ABC has sides 5, 4, and 6, while triangle DEF also has sides 5, 4, and 6. The SSS Postulate ensures that these triangles are congruent.

Congruence of shapes is fundamental in geometry as it allows us to establish relationships between figures and understand properties of transformations. This example collection illustrates congruence by analyzing side lengths and angles to determine equivalence.
