Practice with Rotations Tic-Tac-Toe Questions
Practice with Rotations • Divide the class into two teams, named “X” and “O”. • Draw a large tic-tac-toe grid on the board. • Take turns asking questions of each team. The answer must include an explanation. • If answered correctly, they may place their symbol on the game board. • If answered incorrectly, the other team may place their symbol on the game board. • The first team with 3 symbols in a row wins the game.
Question 1 • TRUE or FALSE? • This pinwheel is spinning in a counterclockwise direction. • WHY?
Question 1 • FALSE • This pinwheel is spinning in a counterclockwise direction. • WHY? The pinwheel is spinning in the same direction as the hands of a clock.
Question 2 • TRUE or FALSE? • The number of degrees separating the center lines of the blades on this fan is 60°. • WHY?
Question 2 • FALSE • The number of degrees separating the center lines of the blades on this fan is 60°. • WHY? There are four blades on the fan. Divide 360° by 4. The blades are 90° apart.
Question 3 • TRUE or FALSE? • This drawing has been rotated 180°. • WHY?
Question 3 • FALSE • This drawing has been rotated 180°. • WHY? The rotation is 90°.
Question 4 • TRUE or FALSE? • This triangle has been rotated in a clockwise direction. • WHY?
Question 4 • TRUE • This triangle has been rotated in a clockwise direction. • WHY? Notice the movement of A to A’ and so on. It is in a clockwise direction.
Question 5 • TRUE or FALSE? • Fish 2 is a 45° counterclockwise rotation of Fish 1. • WHY?
Question 5 • TRUE • Fish 2 is a 45° counterclockwise rotation of Fish 1. • WHY? Remember 45° is half of a 90° rotation.
Question 6 • TRUE or FALSE? • Polygon A'B'C'D' is a 180 degree counterclockwise rotation of polygon ABCD. • WHY?
Question 6 • TRUE • Polygon A'B'C'D' is a 180 degree counterclockwise rotation of polygon ABCD. • WHY? Remember the letters which label the diagram do not have to be rotated.
Question 7 • TRUE or FALSE? • Seahorse 2 is a 90° counterclockwise of Seahorse 1. • WHY?
Question 7 • FALSE • Seahorse 2 is a 90° counterclockwise of Seahorse 1. • WHY? The rotation is 90° clockwise or 270° degrees counterclockwise.
Question 8 • Graph ΔABC under the following rotations: • R90°(ΔABC)=ΔA’B’C’ • R180°(ΔABC)=ΔA’’B’’C’’ • R270°(ΔABC)=ΔA’’’B’’’C’’’
Question 8 • Graph ΔABC under the following rotations: • R90°(ΔABC)=ΔA’B’C’ • R180°(ΔABC)=ΔA’’B’’C’’ • R270°(ΔABC)=ΔA’’’B’’’C’’’
