Reflection and Symmetry: Da Vinci's Mirror Writing |
DescriptionIn this module explore reflection and symmetry in the context of Leonardo Da Vinci's mirror writing. Many of Da Vinci's handwritten notes were written in reverse script that could only be read correctly in a mirror. |

Closed Captioned Video: Geometry Applications: Transformations |
DescriptionIn 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. |

Closed Captioned Video: Geometry Applications: Transformations, Segment 2: 3D Translations. |
DescriptionCargo 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. A Video Transcript is available for this tutorial. |
