Transformations

Question 1

Transformation

Answer 1

A change in position, size, or shape of a geometric figure.

Question 2

Preimage

Answer 2

The geometric figure before the transformation

Question 3

Image

Answer 3

The geometric shape after the transformation

Question 4

3 Types of Rigid Transformation

Answer 4

Translation

Reflection

Rotation

Question 5

Translation

Answer 5

A transformation that moves points the same

distance and in the same direction.

A slide.

Question 6

Reflection

Answer 6

A reflection is a flip across a line of reflection, r, such that preimage point A and image point A’ are equal distance from the line of reflection.

Question 7

Rotation

Answer 7

A rotation (turn) of xº about point R, call the center of rotation is a transformation such that points maintain their original distance to point R.

Question 8

Rotation 180º

Answer 8

Rotating 180º cause the signs of the x and y coordinates for all point to change sign.

Question 9

Rotation 90º

Answer 9

Rotating 90º causes the x and y coordinates to swap. Check which quadrant the point rotates to for proper sign.

Question 10

What are the Quadrants of the Cartesian Grid?

And the signs of the x,y coordinates?
