Exploring Transformations and Translations

What type of geometric transformation involves moving every point of a figure in the same direction by the same amount?

• Translation

• Reflection

• Rotation

• Dilation

Which transformation does not alter the size of the figure but changes its position?

• Reflection

• Dilation

• Translation

• Scaling

What is the result of reflecting an object over the y-axis?

• It decreases in size.

• It increases in size.

• It moves to the opposite side of the y-axis.

• It rotates by 180 degrees.

In a rotation transformation, what remains unchanged?

• The shape of the figure

• The size of the figure

• The position of the figure

• The orientation of the figure

What does a rigid transformation ensure about the pre-image and the image?

• They are congruent.

• They are similar.

• They are identical in size.

• They are proportional.

Which transformation is considered non-rigid?

• Dilation

• Reflection

• Translation

• Rotation

How is a translation represented in coordinate geometry?

• By rotating points around an origin

• By changing the size of points

• By flipping points over an axis

• By shifting points along the x and y axes

What does the ordered pair (x+2, y-3) indicate in a translation?

• Move 2 units left and 3 units up

• Move 2 units right and 3 units down

• Move 2 units down and 3 units left

• Move 2 units up and 3 units right

In the playing card transformation activity, what does a black card represent?

• A positive change in x

• A negative change in y

• A negative change in x

• No change

After applying the card transformation rules, how do you determine the new coordinates of a point?

• Divide the original coordinates by the card values

• Multiply the original coordinates by the card values

• Subtract the card values from the original coordinates

• Add the card values to the original coordinates
