standard_description: Use rational approximations of irrational numbers to compare the size of irrational numbers, locate them approximately on a number line diagram, and estimate the value of expressions (e.g., p^(2)). For example, by truncating the decimal expansion of Ö2, show that Ö2 is between 1 and 2, then between 1.4 and 1.5, and explain how to continue on to get better approximations.
problem_activity: Task
Suppose $f$ is the map of the plane which takes each point $(x,y)$ to the point $(x-3,y)$ and $g$ is the map of the plane that takes each $(x,y)$ to $(3x,y)$.
Below is a triangle $ABC$.
[IMG]
Show the image of $\triangle ABC$ after applying each of the maps $f$ and $g$.
Does $f$ preserve distances and angles? Explain.
Does $g$ preserve distances and angles? Explain.
