Transformations Review for 8th Grade Math

The video tutorial covers geometric transformations, including translations, reflections, rotations, and dilations. It explains the rules for each transformation type, such as how to adjust coordinates for translations and reflections, and how to determine the scale factor for dilations. The tutorial also discusses the effects of these transformations on congruency, orientation, and size, providing examples and rules for each type.

What happens to the x-coordinate when a shape is translated 3 units to the right?

• It increases by 6

• It remains unchanged

• It decreases by 3

• It increases by 3
