Transforming On a Coordinate Plane

About these worksheets

Students practice transforming shapes on the coordinate plane. Worksheets cover reflecting shapes across the x- and y-axes, rotating shapes by 90°, 180°, and 270°, translating shapes in any direction, and calculating slope using slope-intercept form. Aligned with eighth grade geometry standards.

Reflecting on Coordinate Plane

8g3

Reflect a shape across the x-axis or y-axis to draw its mirror image.
Use the x- and y-coordinates of points to plot the reflected shape in the right place.
Apply the reflection rules to change coordinates correctly, like flipping the sign of x or y.
Check that the original and reflected shapes are the same size and the same distance from the axis.

Rotating on Coordinate Plane

8g3

Rotate a shape on a coordinate grid by 90°, 180°, or 270° in the direction given.
Use the origin as the center of rotation and keep the shape’s size and orientation changes correct.
Plot the new points after a rotation and connect them to redraw the rotated shape.
Use rotation rules to predict how (x, y) coordinates change when turning a figure.

Translating on Coordinate Plane

8g3

Practice sliding a shape left, right, up, or down on a coordinate grid without turning it.
Use ordered pairs (x, y) to track how each vertex moves during a translation.
Follow a translation rule or vector (like (x + 3, y - 2)) to move a figure the correct amount.
Plot the translated points and connect them to draw the new image in the right place.
Check that the translated shape stays the same size and orientation as the original.
