Introduction to transformations

Missed the previous lesson?

Geometry on Khan Academy: We are surrounded by space. And that space contains lots of things. And these things have shapes. In geometry we are concerned with the nature of these shapes, how we define them, and what they teach us about the world at large--from math to architecture to biology to astronomy (and everything in between). Learning geometry is about more than just taking your medicine ("It's good for you!"), it's at the core of everything that exists--including you. Having said all that, some of the specific topics we'll cover include angles, intersecting lines, right triangles, perimeter, area, volume, circles, triangles, quadrilaterals, analytic geometry, and geometric constructions. Wow. That's a lot. To summarize: it's difficult to imagine any area of math that is more widely used than geometry.

About Khan Academy: Khan Academy offers practice exercises, instructional videos, and a personalized learning dashboard that empower learners to study at their own pace in and outside of the classroom. We tackle math, science, computer programming, history, art history, economics, and more. Our math missions guide learners from kindergarten to calculus using state-of-the-art, adaptive technology that identifies strengths and learning gaps. We've also partnered with institutions like NASA, The Museum of Modern Art, The California Academy of Sciences, and MIT to offer specialized content.

For free. For everyone. Forever. #YouCanLearnAnything

Love it when the school pulls a fast one on ya and you have to take your EOC tomorrow.

Update: Turns out it was not a requirement, and I spent 3+ hrs on that test for nothing.

[musicalmedz]

Sal.... lol.. you just tend to always explain things in a conceptual manner. You do a video with all the transformational topics! Lol you are so good! I can bet that you have been in this field for years! Big up bro! All the way from Jamaica!

Me: ok we're getting out of school and have nti but it's something i understand

transformations: helo

[cameronholmes]

Ok but how do I translate it if it's asking for the rule and vector.

[jinscrookedfingers]

me: YES FINALLY THERE IS A VIDEO THAT MIGHT

transformations: well yes but actually no

[uwusakurae]

3:15 please ignore just a note to myself

[ianchristiansen]

Thank you, I love this program and it is helping to prepare me for the SSAT test that I have tomorrow :)

[alekseifeig]

i like how he says it is interesting. ITS MATH! IT CANT BE! then he talks about computers.

[freddyweddy]

This is very understandable due to very well detailed instructions.

[FlareDrafox]

He's speaking the language of the gods
