This is the first in a series of Web pages which I created to demonstrate mathematical concepts used in the background images.In these lessons you will be looking for reoccurring shapes, as well as lines of symmetry and transformations of the shapes. You will identify how many of the following concepts you discover in each of the Fractal backgrounds:

• Lines of symmetry

• Shapes that are congruent

• Shapes that are similar

• Each of the following types of Transformations

• Reflections (flips)

• Rotations (turns)

• Translations (slides)

Each of the Fractal Backgrounds were created with Fractals for Windows and modified with graphics software. After exploring these backgrounds, you will create your own backgrounds using the same techniques. Follow the links at the bottom of the page until you have completed the assignment. Be sure and document your findings. You may wish to draw examples to show your results.

Have Fun!
