Geometric Shape Slides

What is a translation?

• When you turn an object around a point.

• When you slide an object from one place to another.

• When you flip or mirror an object across a line.

• When you resize an object.

Shapes that are identical in size, shape and measure are...

• Congruent 

• Image 

• Angles 

• Vertices 

Translating an object is also known as a:

• Flip

• Reflection

• Slide

• Dilation

• A parallel line

• A line that coincides with the given line (line on top of a line)

• A perpendicular line

• An acute angle

What happens when line L is translated along vector \overrightarrow{AC}?

• A line perpendicular to L

• A line parallel to L

• A line that coincides (is on top of) L

• An acute angle to L

Identify the transformation from A to B.

• 90^o Clockwise Rotation

• 180^o Rotation

• 270^o  clockwise Rotation

• 360^o Rotation

Translation

• Slides a figure from one position to another without turning it

• The original geometric figure

• Having the same size and shape

• Angles or sides that have the same relative position in geometric figures
