Coordinates | the numbers in an ordered pair |
x-coordinate | the first number in an ordered pair. |
y-coordinate | the second number in an ordered pair. |
Transformation | moves a figure without changing its size or shape. |
Translation | movement of a figure along a straight line |
Rotation | movement of a figure around a point. |
