Front

What is a translation in geometry?

Back

A translation is a transformation that slides a figure from one position to another without changing its size or shape.

Front

Front

What does a reflection do to a figure?

Back

A reflection flips or mirrors an object across a line.

Front

What is a dilation in geometry?

Back

A dilation is a transformation that changes the size of a figure but keeps its shape.

Front

What is the center of rotation?

Back

The center of rotation is the fixed point around which a figure is rotated.

Front

What is the difference between translation and reflection?

Back

Translation slides a figure without changing its orientation, while reflection flips a figure over a line.

Front

What is congruence in transformations?

Back

Congruence means that two figures have the same shape and size after a transformation.

Front

What is the line of reflection?

Back

The line of reflection is the line over which a figure is flipped in a reflection transformation.
