Front

What is a transformation in geometry?

Back

A transformation is an operation that moves or changes a shape to create a new shape.

Front

Define reflection symmetry.

Back

Reflection symmetry occurs when one half of a shape is a mirror image of the other half.

Front

What is the difference between rotation and reflection?

Back

Rotation turns a shape around a point, while reflection flips a shape over a line.

Front

What is the line of symmetry?

Back

A line of symmetry is a line that divides a shape into two identical parts.

Front

What does it mean for a shape to have rotational symmetry?

Back

A shape has rotational symmetry if it can be rotated around a center point and still look the same.
