Combining Transformations WORKSHEET

Suitable for Year groups: Year 10, Year 11
GCSE Tier: Higher
Targeting grades: 6-7
Prerequisite knowledge: Describing single transformations. Carrying out reflection, rotation, enlargement and translation. Equations of straight lines in the form x = a, y = b and y = x.
Learning Objective: Identify properties of, and describe the results of, translations, rotations and reflections applied to given figures. Describe the changes and invariance achieved by combinations of rotations, reflections and translations.

Combining Transformations WORKSHEET DESCRIPTION

Combining Transformations is suitable for KS4 students who are following a higher-tier scheme of learning.

In section A, students will answer six questions by carrying out two transformations on each object. All questions are answered on individual axes and your pupils can do this on our write-on worksheet. Enlargements include negative and fractional scale factors, and equations of lines are given for reflections.

Section B is again made up of 6 questions on separate axes. This time, the object and image are drawn, and students will describe the two transformations that map object to image. Hints are included at the bottom of the page, as we have provided all the transformations your learners will need.

Next, in section C, pupils will describe two transformations as a single transformation.

Finally, section D looks at invariance.

All worksheets are created by the team of experienced teachers at Cazoom Maths.
