Unit 5 Transformation Vocabulary Practice

The direction in which a figure is placed on a coordinate plane.

• Image
• Orientation of a figure
• Property of Orientation
• Pre-image

Slides a figure without turning it. Every point in the figure goes the same distance in the same direction.

• Reflection
• Translation
• Rotation
• Dilation

It has a center, an angle, and a direction. It moves every point of a figure in a circle around the center clockwise or counterclockwise, and for a distance specified by the angle.

• Reflection
• Translation
• Rotation
• Dilation

A transformation that produces a mirror image of the original figure over a line of reflection (flip).

• Reflection
• Translation
• Rotation
• Dilation

This produces an image that is the same shape as the original, but is a different size.

• Reflection
• Translation
• Rotation
• Dilation

A move, or combination of moves, is called

• Translation
• Image
• Rotation
• Transformation

A shape or figure after a transformation; the new figure.

• Translation
• Image
• Rotation
• Transformation

A shape or figure before a transformation; the original figure.

• Pre-image
• Tranformation
• Similar Shape

A prime-corresponding point in a transformed figure (A')

• Scale Factor
• Proportional
• Prime notation
• Pre-image

Congruence is preserved when a two dimensional figure is transformed and the image is identical in shape and size.
