• (x, y) --> (-y, x)

The trapezoid has been rotated 180° around the origin.  Which shows the algebraic representation for the rotation?  (8.10C)

• (x, y) → (-x, y)
• (x, y) → (x, -y)
• (x, y) → (-x, -y)
• (x, y) → (x, y)

Which of the following statements is true?  (8.10A)

• A reflection over the x-axis will preserve the orientation of the pre-image figure but not the size.
• A 180° rotation clockwise is the same as a 180° counterclockwise rotation.
• A dilation will preserve the size but not the orientation of the figure. 
• A translation will preserve a figure’s orientation but not the size.

What is scale factor?

• A number describing a translation
• A number you use to multiply for dilations
• A number on a weight scale
• A number of scales on a fish

A dilation produces a congruent figure

• True
• False
• D
