Introduction to Transformations

Figures that have the same shape but not necessarily the same size.

• Similar Figures

• Congruent Figures

• Translations

• Rotations

TEKS.MATH.G.7A

The figure that is a copy of the original figure.

• pre image

• image

• transformation

• new figure

Tags

TEKS.MATH.8.10C

The original figure on the coordinate plane.

• transformation

• pre image

• image

TEKS.MATH.8.10A

A transformation in which an object "spins" a specified number of degrees around a designated point (normally counterclockwise, sometimes clockwise).

• Translation

• Dilation

• Rotation

• Reflection

Tags

TEKS.MATH.G.3A

A transformation that "slides" each point of a figure the same distance in the same direction.

• Translation

• Dilation

• Rotation

• Reflection

Tags

TEKS.MATH.G.3A

This transformation flips over a reference line or point on the coordinate plane. Reflections could be across the: X- axis, Y - axis, Y=X, Y=-X, Origin, and another line.

• Translation

• Dilation

• Rotation

• Reflection
