Exploring Rigid Transformations

What does a rigid transformation affect in an object?

• Color and texture

• Orientation and color

• Position only

• Size and shape

What is an example of a rigid transformation?

• Texture modification

• Color change

• Translation

• Scaling

What remains unchanged in a rigid transformation?

• Position and orientation

• Size and shape

• Color and texture

• Orientation and size

In a reflection, how is the pre-image related to the image?

• Randomly placed

• At the same distance from the line on opposite sides

• On the same side of the line

• Closer to the line of reflection

What is the role of the line of reflection in a reflection transformation?

• It acts as the pivot for rotation

• It determines the new color of the figure

• It defines the new texture of the figure

• It is the axis along which the figure is flipped

What defines the center of rotation in a rotation transformation?

• The furthest point from the figure

• The midpoint of the figure

• A fixed point around which the figure turns

• The line of symmetry

By how many degrees is the figure rotated in the discussed example?

• 45 degrees

• 360 degrees

• 90 degrees

• 180 degrees

What transformation results in a change in size but not in shape or orientation?

• Translation

• Rotation

• Dilation

• Reflection

Which transformation does not qualify as a rigid transformation?

• Translation

• Dilation

• Rotation

• Reflection

How does a dilation differ from other transformations discussed?

• It changes the size but not the shape

• It changes the shape but not the size

• It changes both size and shape

• It changes neither size nor shape
