How do you translate a point (x, y) to a new point (x', y')?

Back

To translate a point, add the translation vector to the original coordinates: (x', y') = (x + a, y + b).

What happens to a point when it is dilated by a scale factor of 1/2?

Back

The coordinates of the point are multiplied by 1/2: (x, y) --> (0.5x, 0.5y).

How do you perform a dilation followed by a translation?

Back

First, apply the dilation to the point, then add the translation vector to the resulting coordinates.

What is the definition of a transformation in geometry?

Back

A transformation is a function that maps a set of points to another set of points, altering their position, size, or orientation.

What is a translation in geometry?

Back

A translation moves every point of a shape the same distance in a given direction.
