• Only magnitude

• Only direction

• Magnitude and direction

• No magnitude or direction

What does translation as a transformation do to an object?

• Rotates it

• Reflects it

• Moves it without rotating, resizing, or reflecting

• Resizes it

In which field is line translation used to program robots to move along specific paths?

What remains unchanged when a line is translated?

• Length and orientation

• Only length

• Length and shape

• Orientation and shape

What is the purpose of teaching reflection of a circle in the line?

• To confuse students

• To complicate geometry

• To avoid real-world applications

What is the key idea behind the reflection of a circle in a line?

• The shape changes completely

• The distance between points changes

• The shape remains the same

• The orientation is reversed

What is the center of rotation in a shape?

• The point with the highest value

• The fixed point around which a shape is rotated

• The point with the lowest value

• A random point

What do positive angles indicate in rotation around a point?
