What is a rotation in geometry?

Back

A rotation is a transformation that turns a figure around a fixed point, called the center of rotation, by a certain angle in a specified direction.

What does it mean to rotate a figure 270 degrees clockwise?

Back

Rotating a figure 270 degrees clockwise means turning the figure 270 degrees in the direction of the clock's hands, resulting in a new position.

What is a reflection in geometry?

Back

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

What is dilation in geometry?

Back

Dilation is a transformation that changes the size of a figure but not its shape, using a scale factor and a center of dilation.

How do you reflect a point across the line y = x?

Back

To reflect a point (a, b) across the line y = x, swap the coordinates to get (b, a).
