| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| compress | "squishes" or ¨shrinks¨ the curve of a function toward one of the coordinate axes. This happens when you multiply part of the function by a constant |
| congruent | identical in both size and shape |
| corresponding | matching parts or positions that lie in the same relative spot on different shapes, figures, or lines |
| dilation | a transformation that changes the size of a figure by making it larger or smaller while keeping its shape and angles exactly the same |
| inputs | the way you type or write a mathematical symbol or number into a function, equation, or rule |
| model | A representation of an object or idea such as equations, graphs, charts, 3D shapes, or physical projects |
| outputs | the final result you get after you put an input into a function, equation, or rule |
| point of intersection | the exact location where two lines, curves, or axes cross each other on a graph |
| reflection | a geometric transformation that flips a shape over a line to create a mirror image |
| rotation | a transformation that turns a shape or a point around a fixed point |
| scale | the set of numbers and equal intervals placed along the axes (x-axis and y-axis) |
| similar | two shapes have the exact same shape, but they do not have to be the same size |
| stretch | a transformation that changes the size of a graph or figure in one or both directions, making it wider, narrower, taller, or shorter |
| transformation | a geometric move that changes a shape's position or direction |
| translation | a transformation that slides a shape or point a fixed distance in a given direction without changing its size, shape, or orientation |
