Transformation and Reflection Study Guide

Select the transformation that "slides" a figure left, right, up, or down.

• RoTaTion

• ReFLection

• TranSLation

• Dilation

Select the transformation that "flips" a figure across an axis creating a mirror image.

• RoTaTion

• ReFLection

• TranSLation

• Dilation

What transformation is happening?
(x, y) ----> (x + 2, y - 3) 

• slide up 2, left 3
• slide right 2, up 3
• slide right 2, down 3
• slide left 3, right 2

How is triangle ABC being translated to triangle A'B'C'?

• up 3, left 8
• up 9, left 4
• down 3, right 8
• down 9, right 4

How would you translate point P to P'?

• Translate 2 units to the right and  8 units down
• Translate 3 units down and 2 units to the right
• Translate 4 units down and 4 units to the left
• Translate 8 units to the right and 2 units down

When translating left or right on a coordinate plane, what coordinate is affected?

• x-coordinate

• y-coordinate

• both x- and y-coordinates

• neither the x- nor the y-coordinate

Reflect (6, -3) over the x-axis. What are the new coordinates of that point after the reflection?

• (6, 3)

• (-6, -3)

• (-3, 6)

• (3, -6)

Reflect the point (2, -4) over the y-axis. What are the new coordinates of that point after the reflection?

• (-4, 2)

• (-2, 4)

• (-2, -4)

• (2, 4)

Where will A' be located if triangle ABC is reflected using the rule (x, y) --> (-x, y) ?

• (2,1)

• (1,-2)

• (-1,2)

• (-1, -2)

If you were to rotate ABCD 180° about the origin, what would the coordinate of A' be?

• (3, 5)

• (-3, -5)

• (-5, 3)

• (5, 3)
