Orientation and Congruence

Front

What do translations keep?

Back

Both congruence and orientation.

Front

What do dilations keep?

Back

Only orientation.

Front

Which type of transformation does not change the shape's orientation?

Back

Translation.

Front

What do reflections keep?

Back

Only congruence.

Front

Which transformations are considered congruence transformations?

Back

All three: Rotations, Translations, and Reflections.

Front

Define congruence in geometry.

Back

Congruence means that two shapes are identical in shape and size.

Front

What is orientation in geometry?

Back

Orientation refers to the direction in which a shape is arranged or positioned.

Front

What is a translation in geometry?

Back

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

Front

What is a dilation in geometry?

Back

A dilation is a transformation that changes the size of a shape but not its shape.

Front

What is a reflection in geometry?

Back

A reflection is a transformation that flips a shape over a line, creating a mirror image.
