Levels of Rigor in Proofs Using Transformations

Description

Experience a sequence of activities from Illustrative Mathematics that moves students from hands-on experimentation to strategy games to formal proof of SAS, ASA, and SSS using transformations. We'll break down the learning trajectory of proof with transformations and discuss the level of rigor that is appropriate for transformation proofs.
