Lesson 4 Flashcards
a repeated arrangement
of numbers, shapes, colors and so
on. The Pattern can be related to
any type of event or object
Pattern
a regularity in the world, in
human-made design, or in abstract
ideas
Pattern
Sometimes, patterns are also known
as a _________. Patterns are ________or
_________in numbers.
Sequence
Finite
Infinite
a kind of pattern formed of geometric shapes
and typically repeated like a wallpaper
design
A geometric pattern
Defined as one shape is
exactly like the other shape when it is
moved, rotated, or flipped
Symmetries
Symmetry in everyday language refers
to a sense of harmonious and beautiful
__________and _________.
proportion
balance
used to refer to an object that is invariant
under some transformations; including
translation, reflection, rotation or
scaling
Symmetries
any non-empty plane set
Any object drawn in a plane
A motif
The rotation of a motif in a fixed angle about a fixed point
Isometry
changes the size, shape, or position of a figure and creates a new figure
A transformation
either rigid or non-rigid; another word for a rigid
transformation is “isometry”
geometry transformation
is not an isometry since it either shrinks or enlarges a figure
Dilation
The initial object to be transformed is
called _______and the transformed object is
called _______
Pre-image
Image
A mathematical term used in geometry to describe a function that moves an object a certain distance. The object is not altered in any
other way
TRANSLATION
It is a transformation in which the figure or object is mirror image of the other.
REFLECTION
a transformation that changes the size of a figure. It can
become larger or smaller, but the shape remains the same.
Dilation
It is a transformation that turns a figure about a fixed point called the center of rotation. Rotations can be done clockwise or counterclockwise
ROTATION
