Learners have explored periodicity and modular number systems in the previous lesson. In Angles and Reflections students will use this information and hinged mirrors to view images produced by multiple reflections of objects. Multiple image formation is explored through activities involving central angles of regular geometric figures such as triangles, squares, pentagons, hexagons, octagons, and dodecagons.
