Some of the questions in this unit may be answered by recording an audio file. If you chose to record the answer, click on the Add Recording button and follow the on-screen instructions closely. Once you have completed and attached the recording, enter the word “COMPLETE” in the text box. (Note: If your computer does not have a built-in microphone, a microphone or microphone/headset combination is needed to record audio.)

26) Jerry's CD player can hold five compact disks on a rotating tray around point A. The CD tray can move only counterclockwise. Answer the following questions: (a) How many degrees does the tray rotate from one position to the next? (b) How many degrees will the tray rotate to play a CD in position 4 if the starting position is position 1? (Hint:  If CD 1 moves counterclockwise from its original position completely around and back to its original position, it will have rotated 360 degrees around center point A.)

31) In the figure trapezoid A'B'C'D' is the image of trapezoid ABCD after a dilation is performed. What is the scale factor?

Tessellations

32) Quadrilaterals can be used to create attractive tessellations. A quadrilateral is shown below and transformed to demonstrate how it can be used to tessellate a plane. Draw a quadrilateral of your choice and transform (translate, rotate, and/or reflect) it several times to tessellate a plane. If you have access to a scanner, attach a scanned picture of your tessellation. If not, describe your tessellation and the transformations that you used to tessellate the plane.

33) M.C. Escher was an artist who blended the mathematics of tessellations and his artistic talent to create compelling drawings that tessellated a plane. Go to the official Escher website, http://www.mcescher.com/, and navigate the site to find the gallery of his drawings that display symmetry. Choose your favorite Escher print and describe how he used tessellations to create the drawing. Make sure you spend ample time studying the picture as you may find shapes that at first glance you did not notice. You may attach the picture you chose to share with the instructor.
