Geometry Test Transformations

Front

What is a congruence transformation?

Back

A transformation that preserves the size and shape of a figure, resulting in a figure that is congruent to the original.

What happens during a dilation with a scale factor of 1?

Back

The figure remains unchanged; it is a congruence transformation.

How do you translate a figure?

Back

To translate a figure, you move it a certain distance in a specified direction without changing its shape or size.

What does the notation (x + a, y + b) represent in transformations?

Back

It represents a translation of a point (x, y) by 'a' units horizontally and 'b' units vertically.

What is the effect of a translation of 8 units down and 5 units to the right on a point?

Back

The new coordinates will be (original x + 5, original y - 8).

What is the difference between enlargement and reduction in dilation?

Back

Enlargement increases the size of a figure (scale factor > 1), while reduction decreases the size (scale factor < 1).
