    Use this

    Coordinate grid, all four quadrants, each square one unit, origin in the middle. Triangle CDF is drawn with its corners labeled and the mirror line x = 2 drawn dashed across the grid; the image is not drawn.

  2. Triangle CDF on Ari's quilt design has corners C(1, 5), D(-4, 3) and F(3, -2). It flips across the line x = 2. Where is D′? Write it like (7, -3).

  3. Triangle CDF on Jun's map design has corners C(-5, 1), D(2, 3) and F(0, -2). It flips across the line y = 4. Where is C′? Write it like (7, -3).

  4. Triangle CDF on Kira's crown design has corners C(1, 3), D(-4, 6) and F(2, -5). It flips across the line y = x. Where is D′? Write it like (7, -3).

  5. Triangle FGH on Luz's tent design has corners F(5, 2), G(-3, 4) and H(-6, -1). It flips across the line y = -x. Where is F′? Write it like (7, -3).

  6. Triangle QSU on Milo's window design has corners Q(-2, -5), S(7, -3) and U(3, 6). It flips across the line y = x. Where is S′? Write it like (7, -3).

  7. Triangle CDF on Noah's star design has corners C(-6, 1), D(3, -4) and F(4, 5). It flips across the line y = -x. Where is C′? Write it like (7, -3).

  8. A flip sends Pia's boat marker from P(-3, 6) to P′(5, 6). The mirror line is vertical (x = k). What is k?

  9. A flip sends Zee's paper marker from P(6, -2) to P′(6, 8). The mirror line is horizontal (y = k). What is k?

  10. Ari's rocket marker P(-2, 6) is flipped across the line x = 3 to P′. How many units long is segment PP′?

  11. Jun's bus marker P(3, 6) is flipped across the line y = -2 to P′. How many units long is segment PP′?

About this worksheet

Reflections and rotations on the grid. Every version has 10 questions, and the answer key prints on the second page.

What your child will learn

  • I can flip a point across a vertical, horizontal or diagonal line, and find the mirror line from a point and its image.
  • I can follow a point through two moves in order, and say when two moves equal one.
  • I can say what a flip, a turn and a slide keep the same (lengths, angles, direction) and what they change.
  • I can find the center and the mirror lines of a figure given by coordinates.
  • I can choose the sequence of rigid motions that maps one triangle onto another, testing every corner.

Standard: G-CO.A.2, G-CO.A.4, G-CO.A.5

Words to know

reflection (flip): Every point lands as far past the mirror line as it started.

rotation (turn): Turning every point the same angle about one fixed point, the center.

rigid motion: A move that keeps every length and angle: a flip, a turn or a slide.

congruent: The same size and shape: one rigid motion, or two or three in a row, carries one onto the other.

line of symmetry: A mirror line that maps a figure onto itself.

image: The shape after the move; D becomes D′ (read "D prime").

Common mistakes

Your child flipped across an axis instead of the line given.

Your child changed the wrong coordinate. A vertical mirror line moves points sideways and leaves y alone; a horizontal one moves them up or down.

Your child put the point on the mirror line instead of past it.

What to say

Ask: which line is the mirror, and how far is the point from it?

Ask: should the image sit on the line or on the other side?

Questions parents ask
