. Number of turns it took us © Pooron Econ Ie, 140 Sunken Date Name How fo Play Sunken Ships on Paper Two teams try to locate each other’s sunken ships. Setting up: Each team secretly draws a sunken ship on the grid labeled “Our Ship” on the Sunken. Ships Grids sheet. Ships must cover five grid intersections lying on a vertical or horizontal straight line. . To begin, the first team decides where it wants to start its search for the other team’s ship by naming a point, such as (-3, 5). . The second team checks to see if that point is on its ship. If it is, it says “Ship.” If not, it gives the number of units to the nearest undiscovered point on the ship. . The first team records its point on the grid labeled “Their Ship.” They write S for ship, if itis a point on the ship. Or they write the number indicating how many units away from the second team’s ship their point is. . Then the second team guesses where to start its search for the first team’s ship and names a point. . Teams take turns guessing points until they have both found all five points of the other's ship. to find their sunken ship: to find our sunken ship: Round 1: Round 1: Round 2: Round 2: Round 3: a ms Round 3: Investi Number of turns it took themY Sunken Ships Grids Our Ship 3] rs RRA 141 Investigation 1 + Sessions 3-4 ‘Sunken Ships and Grid Patterns296 CHAPTER 9 Geometry as Transforming Shapes PART 5: Escher-like tessellations Using the language of translations, reflections, and rotations, we are now in a position to understand how the artist M. C. Escher made his tessellations (see, for example, Figure 9.21 on page 502 of the text). Escher began with a polygon that would tessellate and then transformed that polygon. We can use the analogy of chess to understand how he did this: There are legal moves and illegal moves. 1. Translations One legal move is to modify one side of the polygon and then translate that modification to the opposite side. For example: Begin with a square (Step 1). Modify one side (Step 2). ‘Translate the modified side to the opposite side (Step 3). In this case, the translation is a vertical slide. al [a ‘a. Begin with a square and experiment with translations. Show your work and reasoning so that your instructor can follow your thinking. Make notes of your observations as they happen: patterns you see, conjectures you decide to pursue, questions you have. b. Summarize these (observations, pattems, and hypotheses about translations and tessellations. 2. Rotations Another legal move is to rotate part of a shape. The center of rotation—that is, the “hinge” about which the part rotates—can be a vertex or a midpoint of one of the sides. For example: Begin with an equilateral triangle (Step 1). Modify one side (Step 2). Rotate that side 60 degrees counterclockwise about the bottom left vertex of the triangle (Step 3). ye ‘Step 1 Step 2 ‘Step 1 ‘a. Begin with a square or an equilateral triangle and experiment with rotations. Show your work so that your instructor can follow your thinking.

Combinations of translations, rotations, and reflections We can combine ) translations, rotations, and reflections to make tessellations. For example, we can begin with a rectangle (see Step 1 below) and, using a compass and straightedge, ‘construct a semicircle whose diameter is half the length of the side of the rectangle (Step 2). ‘We can then rotate the semicircle 180 degrees, as shown in Step 3 below, the center of rotation being the midpoint of the top side of the rectangle. ‘Next, we translate this shape to the bottom side of the rectangle. The result is shown in Step 4. This shape will tessellate, but it's not very interesti However, we can also transform the shorter side of the rectangle, as shown in Step 5. This time, we replace the top half of the right side of the rectangle with ‘a quarter-circle whose radius is equal to the length of the line segment we are replacing. ‘Then we reflect (another legal move) that quarter circle across a line that is parallel to the base of the rectangle and goes through the middle of the rectangle. See step 6. Finally, we translate this side of the rectangle to the other side, as shown in Step 7. The original rectangle is shown with dotted lines.
