Term | Definition |
translation | a slide described by length and direction |
reflection | a flip transformation of an object in a mirror line or reflection line |
rotation | a transformation in which a figure is turned or rotated about a point |
centre of rotation | the point around which an object can be rotated |
dilation | a transformation that changes the size of an object |
line of symmetry a | mirror line that reflects an object onto itself |
rotational symmetry | a figure that maps onto itself more than once in a complete turn |
point symmetry | rotational symmetry of order 2 |
tesselation | an arrangement of shapes that completely covers the plane without overlapping |
A rigid transformation (also called an isometry) | is a transformation of the plane that preserves length. Reflections, translations, rotations, and combinations of these three transformations are "rigid transformations". |
A reflection (flip) | is called a rigid transformation or isometry because the image is the same size and shape as the pre-image. |
A translation (slide) | is called a rigid transformation or isometry because the image is the same size and shape as the pre-image |
Rotation ( flip) | the point about which the object is rotated can be inside the figure or anywhere outside it. |
Translation | (x+h, y+k) |
Reflection across the X- Axis | (x,-y) |
Reflection across the Y- Axis | (-x,y) |
Reflection across the Y- Axis | (-x,y) |
Reflection across y=-x | (-y,-x) |
90 degrees counterclockwise or 270 clockwise | (-y,x) |
180 degrees both ways | (-x,-y) |
270 degrees counterclockwise or 90 clockwise | (y,-x) |
4 Types of Transformations | - Rotation - Reflection - Translation - Dilation |
Translation | A shift of a graph horizontally, vertically, or both, which results in a graph of the same shape and size, but in a different position. |
Rotation | Turning around an axis or center point. |
Reflection | A transformation that "flips" a figure over a mirror or reflection line. |
