Test solutions with the detailed point scale. Add up your points and spot what to review.

Suggested time: 45 minutes. Out of 20 points. Calculator allowed only when the problem says so.

2 A half turn / 3 pts

  1. \((x, y)\to(-x, -y)\): \(K′(-1, -1)\), \(L′(-4, -1)\), \(M′(-1, -3)\). (1.5 pts)
  2. \(LM^2 = 3^2 + 2^2 = 13\) and \(L′M′^2 = 3^2 + 2^2 = 13\), so \(LM = L′M′ = \sqrt{13}\). (1.5 pts)

3 Composition / 4 pts

  1. \(T\): \((2, 2)\); then \(R\): \((2, -2)\). (1.5 pts)
  2. \(R\): \((3, 2)\); then \(T\): \((2, 6)\). (1.5 pts)
  3. No, \((2, -2)\ne(2, 6)\): the order of a composition matters. (1 pt)

4 Identify the rotation / 3 pts

  1. \(A(1, 2)\to(-2, 1)\) matches \((x, y)\to(-y, x)\): a \(90^\circ\) counterclockwise rotation. (1 pt)
  2. \(B(4, 2)\to(-2, 4)\) and \(C(1, 5)\to(-5, 1)\), as given. (1 pt)
  3. \(270^\circ\) clockwise. (1 pt)

5 Symmetry / 3 pts

  1. 9 lines (1 pt); \(360^\circ \div 9 = 40^\circ\) (1 pt).
  2. 2 lines and \(180^\circ\) (1 pt).

6 Congruent triangles / 3 pts

  1. \(AB = 3\), \(AC = 4\), \(BC = 5\); \(GH = 3\), \(GI = 4\), \(HI = \sqrt{16 + 9} = 5\). The sides match (SSS). (1.5 pts)
  2. Translate by \(\langle 2, 2\rangle\): \(A\to G\), \(B\to(5, 2)\), \(C\to(2, 6)\). Then rotate \(90^\circ\) counterclockwise about \(G(2, 2)\): \(B\to(2, 5) = H\) and \(C\to(-2, 2) = I\). (1.5 pts)
