Front

Identify the coordinates of the image of Triangle ABC after a translation 5 units to the right: A (2, 3), B (2, -2), C (-4, -2)

Back

A' (7, 3) B' (7, -2) C' (1, -2)

Front

What is the algebraic representation of translating a figure 3 units left and 5 units down?

Back

(x - 3, y - 5)

Front

If rectangle T’E’X’S’ represents the image after a translation of 3 units to the right and 2 units down, which of the following ordered pairs would represent the coordinates for point T? T (-1, 2), T (-7, 6), T (-1, 6), T (-7, 2)

Back

T (-7, 6)

Front

What is the algebraic representation for reflecting a figure over the x-axis?

Back

(x, y) --> (x, -y)

Front

What does a translation do to a figure?

Back

It slides the figure to a new position without changing its shape or orientation.

Front

What is the effect of reflecting a figure over the y-axis?

Back

The x-coordinates of the points are negated, resulting in (x, y) --> (-x, y).

Front

How do you find the image of a point after a translation?

Back

Add the translation values to the original coordinates.

Front

What is the difference between translation and reflection?

Back

Translation slides a figure, while reflection flips it over a line.

Front

What are the coordinates of a point after a translation of 4 units up?

Back

If the original point is (x, y), the new point is (x, y + 4).
