Back

(-4, 5)

Front

A rigid motion preserves ____________ and ____________.

Back

size and shape

Front

What rule describes the translation that moves a point 2 units to the right and 6 units down?

Back

(x + 2, y - 6)

Front

If point X is translated 3 units to the left and 9 units down, where would X' be?

Back

Front

What is the definition of translation in geometry?

Back

A translation is a type of transformation that moves every point of a figure the same distance in the same direction.

Front

What does it mean for figures to be congruent?

Back

Congruent figures have the same shape and size.

Front

What is the effect of a translation on the size of a figure?

Back

A translation does not change the size of a figure.

Front

If a point (x, y) is translated using the rule (x + a, y + b), what do 'a' and 'b' represent?

Back

'a' represents the horizontal shift, and 'b' represents the vertical shift.

Front

What is the difference between a translation and a rotation?

Back

A translation slides a figure without changing its orientation, while a rotation turns a figure around a fixed point.
