Question

  1. hailey has a sheet of plywood with four right angles. she saws off one of the angles and turns the plywood one - half turn clockwise. how many right angles are there on the plywood now?

use the information to answer problems 11 - 12.

margot draws a shape with one pair of parallel lines that are four centimeters apart. she then flips the shape across a horizontal line.

  1. how many pairs of parallel lines are on the flipped shape?
  1. how far apart are the parallel lines on the flipped shape? how do you know?
  1. complete each transformation of the given figure.
  1. complete the drawing of the parallelogram after a slide to the right.
  1. open ended perform a transformation on the shape. draw the result and describe the transformation you performed.

Response
Problem 10

Step1: Analyze the original shape

The original plywood has four right angles, so it's a rectangle (since rectangles have four right angles).

Step2: Analyze the sawing and turning

When one angle (a right angle) is sawn off, the shape becomes a pentagon? Wait, no. Wait, a rectangle has four right angles. If we saw off one right angle (by cutting a triangle off one corner), the original corner (right angle) is replaced by two new angles. But then we turn the plywood a half - turn (180 degrees) clockwise. Wait, maybe a better way: A rectangle has four right angles. If we cut off one right - angled corner (so we remove a right angle and add two angles), but when we turn it 180 degrees, the number of right angles: Let's think of the rectangle. Suppose we cut off a corner such that we have a new shape. But maybe the key is that a half - turn (rotation by 180 degrees) doesn't change the number of right angles in terms of the angle measures, but the cutting: Wait, maybe the original is a rectangle (4 right angles). When we saw off one angle (a right angle), we are left with 3 right angles? No, wait, when you cut a rectangle's corner (a right angle) with a saw, you are creating a new vertex. The original right angle is split into two angles, but maybe the other three right angles remain? Wait, no, if you cut off one corner of a rectangle, the shape becomes a pentagon. The original four right angles: one is replaced by two angles, so the number of right angles: let's say the rectangle has vertices A, B, C, D with right angles at each. If we cut off corner A (between sides AB and AD) by a line from a point on AB to a point on AD, then the new shape has vertices: on AB: a point E, on AD: a point F, then B, C, D. So the angles at B, C, D are still right angles (since we haven't cut those sides). The angle at E: between BE and EF, and the angle at F: between DF and EF. The original angle at A was 90 degrees, now we have two angles at E and F. But then we turn the plywood 180 degrees clockwise. Rotation by 180 degrees preserves the angle measures. So the number of right angles: the three right angles at B, C, D (after cutting) are still right angles, and what about the other two angles? Wait, maybe I made a mistake. Wait, the problem says "she saws off one of the angles and turns the plywood one - half turn clockwise". A half - turn is 180 degrees. Let's think of the rectangle: four right angles. If we saw off one right angle (so we have a new shape with, say, 5 sides), but when we rotate it 180 degrees, the number of right angles: Let's take a simple case. Suppose the rectangle is square - like. If we cut off a corner (a right angle) to make a pentagon with three right angles (the other two angles are not right angles), then rotating 180 degrees doesn't change the number of right angles. Wait, maybe the answer is 3? No, wait, maybe the original is a rectangle (4 right angles). When you saw off one angle (a right angle), you are left with 3 right angles? No, when you cut a rectangle's corner, you are creating a new edge, so the number of angles increases by 1 (from 4 to 5). The original four right angles: one is replaced by two angles, so the number of right angles is 3 (the other three corners are still right angles). Then, when you turn it 180 degrees, the angle measures remain the same. So the number of right angles is 3? Wait, no, maybe I'm wrong. Wait, let's consider the rectangle. Let's say the rectangle has length L and width W. If we cut off a right - angled triangle from one corner, the new shape has five sides. The three original cor…

Step1: Recall the property of reflection

A flip (reflection) is a rigid transformation. Rigid transformations (reflection, rotation, translation) preserve the shape and size of the figure, including the parallel lines.

Step2: Determine the number of parallel lines

The original shape has one pair of parallel lines. Since reflection preserves the parallelism of lines, the flipped shape will also have one pair of parallel lines.

Step1: Recall the property of reflection

Reflection (flipping) is a rigid transformation. Rigid transformations preserve the distance between parallel lines (or any two points) in the figure.

Step2: Determine the distance

The original parallel lines are four centimeters apart. Since reflection does not change the distance between the parallel lines, the parallel lines on the flipped shape are also four centimeters apart.

Answer:

3 (Note: This is a possible answer, the exact answer may depend on the exact way the angle is sawn off, but a common result is 3 right angles)
