Back

90° Clockwise Rotation

Front

When translating a point (x,y) to (x-4,y), how far does it move horizontally?

Back

4 units left

Front

What is the result of reflecting a figure across the y-axis?

Back

The x-coordinates of the points are negated.

Front

What is a transformation in geometry?

Back

A change in the position, size, or shape of a figure.

Front

What is the effect of a translation on a figure?

Back

It moves the figure without changing its shape or orientation.

Front

How does a reflection transformation differ from a rotation?

Back

Reflection flips the figure over a line, while rotation turns it around a point.

Front

What is the line of reflection in a reflection transformation?

Back

The line over which the figure is flipped.

Front

What happens to the coordinates of a point (x,y) when it is reflected across the x-axis?

Back

The new coordinates become (x,-y).
