Geometric Transformation Vocabulary

Same size and same shape

• congruent

• coplanar

• collinear

• angle

This is an example of

• translation

• reflection

• rotation

• composition of transformations

A resulting figure after a transformation is called

• a pre-image

• rigid motion

• translation

• image

A translation

• is a transformation that preserves distance and angle measures.

• is a transformation that moves or slides points the same distance and in the same direction.

• is a transformation that flips points across a line of reflection.

• is a transformation that turns points about point called a center of rotation.

A transformation in which a second transformation is performed on a image of a first transformation is called

• composition of transformation

• translation

• rigid motion

• reflection

A transformation that preserves distance and angle measures is

• translation

• transformation

• rigid motion

• rotation

A change in position, size and shape of a geometric figure is a

• translation

• transformation

• pre-image

• rigid motion

The transformations, reflection, rotation, and translation are all examples of

• transformation

• translation

• composition of transformations

• rigid motion

Triangle A'B'C' is an example of

• image

• rigid motion

• pre-image

• translation

Reflection, Rotation, and Translation are examples for this when the geometric figure has a change in position

• composition of transformation

• rigid motion

• image

• transformations
