For each pair of figures, decide whether you can take figure A to figure B by a translation, a rotation, or a reflection.

• translation

• rotation

• reflection

A type of transformation where a figure is “flipped” over a line of symmetry. A reflection produces a mirror image of a figure.

• rotation

• translation

• dilation

• reflection

A transformation that “turns” a figure about a fixed point at a given angle and a given direction.
