What is a rigid transformation?

Back

A rigid transformation is a transformation that preserves the shape and size of a figure, meaning the figure remains congruent after the transformation.

What is translation in geometry?

Back

Translation is a rigid transformation that slides a figure in a straight line from one position to another without changing its shape or orientation.

What is reflection in geometry?

Back

Reflection is a rigid transformation that flips a figure over a line, creating a mirror image.
