Term | Definition |
---|---|
transversal | a line that intersects 2 or more lines |
linear pair | two adjacent angles that are supplementary; non-shared sides form opposite rays |
adjacent angles | two angles that share a side |
supplementary angles | two angles that add up to 180 degrees |
perpendicular lines | intersect at 90 degrees |
transformation | an operation on a point or image (set of points) to create a new point or image |
preimage | original image |
image | image created from transformation |
rigid motion transformation | does not change an image's size or its shape; length and angle measures are preserved |
reflection | transformation that reflects each point in the preimage across a line of reflection |
rotation | transformation that rotates each point in the preimage about a point P by an angle measure of x degrees |
center of rotation | P; point a preimage is rotated about |
angle of rotation | degrees a preimage is rotated by |
composition | a combination of two or more rigid motion transformations |
glide reflection | 1 translation and one reflection |
