FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

How do you translate a point (x, y) three units to the left and two units down?

Back

The new coordinates will be (x - 3, y - 2). For example, translating (5, 5) results in (2, 3).

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the result of reflecting a point (x, y) over the y-axis?

Back

The new coordinates will be (-x, y). For example, reflecting (3, 4) results in (-3, 4).

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What happens to the coordinates of a point when it is rotated 90° clockwise about the origin?

Back

The new coordinates will be (y, -x). For example, rotating (2, 3) results in (3, -2).

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the result of rotating a point (x, y) 180° about the origin?

Back

The new coordinates will be (-x, -y). For example, rotating (2, 3) results in (-2, -3).

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the effect of a translation of (x, y) by (a, b)?

Back

The new coordinates will be (x + a, y + b). For example, translating (1, 1) by (2, 3) results in (3, 4).
