Rigid Motion Transformations Practice

Front

What is a rigid motion transformation?

Back

A rigid motion transformation is a transformation that preserves the shape and size of a figure, meaning the distance between points remains unchanged.

Front

Define rotation in the context of rigid motion transformations.

Back

Rotation is a transformation that turns a figure around a fixed point, called the center of rotation, by a certain angle.

What is reflection in rigid motion transformations?

Back

Reflection is a transformation that flips a figure over a line, creating a mirror image of the original figure.

Explain translation in rigid motion transformations.

Back

Translation is a transformation that slides a figure from one position to another without changing its shape, size, or orientation.

How do you perform a 180-degree rotation of a point around the origin?

Back

To perform a 180-degree rotation of a point (x, y) around the origin, the new coordinates will be (-x, -y).

What is the effect of a translation on the coordinates of a point?

Back

A translation shifts the coordinates of a point by adding or subtracting values to/from the x and y coordinates.
