Transformation Rules
Transformation of Figures Rules
| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| Reflection across the x-axis | (x, y) -> (x, -y) |
| Reflection across the y-axis | (x, y) -> (-x, y) |
| Reflection across the line y = x | (x, y) -> (y, x) |
| Reflection across the line y = -x | (x, y) -> (-y, -x) |
| Rotation 90 degrees CounterClockwise | (x, y) -> (-y, x) |
| Rotation 270 degrees Clockwise | (x, y) -> (-y, x) same rule as 90 degrees counterclockwise |
| Rotation 180 degrees CounterClockwise | (x, y) -> (-x, -y) |
| Rotation 270 degrees CounterClockwise | (x, y) -> (y, -x) |
| Rotation 90 degrees Clockwise | (x, y) -> (y, -x) same rule as 270 degrees counterclockwise |
| Rotation 180 degrees Clockwise | (x, y) -> (-x, -y) |
| Translation up "a" units | (x, y) -> (x, y+a) |
| Translation down "a" units | (x, y) -> (x, y-a) |
| Translation left "b" units | (x, y) -> (x-b, y) |
| Translation right "b" units | (x, y) -> (x+b, y) |
| Translation right "b" units and up "a" units | (x, y) -> (x+b, y+a) |
| Translation left "b" units and down "a" units | (x, y) -> (x-b, y-a) |
| Dilation from origin with scale factor "k" | (x, y) -> (kx, ky) |
