What is a line of symmetry?

Back

A line that divides a shape into two identical halves, where each half is a mirror image of the other.

What is the result of reflecting a shape over the x-axis?

Back

The y-coordinates of the points of the shape are inverted, creating a mirror image across the x-axis.

How do you determine if two shapes are similar?

Back

Two shapes are similar if they have the same shape but not necessarily the same size, and their corresponding angles are equal.

What is the difference between rotation and reflection?

Back

Rotation turns a shape around a point, while reflection flips a shape over a line.
