Transformations and Reflections in Geometry

This video tutorial covers transformations in geometry, focusing on translations, reflections, and rotations. It provides detailed explanations and examples for each type of transformation, including how to perform them on coordinate planes. The video also introduces an algebra course available on Udemy, highlighting its content and structure.

What happens to the x-coordinate of a point when a figure is translated 5 units to the right?

• It decreases by 5.

• It increases by 5.

• It remains the same.

• It decreases by 10.

If a figure is translated 7 units left and 6 units down, what happens to its coordinates?

• Subtract 7 from x and add 6 to y.

• Add 7 to x and add 6 to y.

• Subtract 7 from x and subtract 6 from y.

• Add 7 to x and subtract 6 from y.

How do you reflect a point over the x-axis?

• Multiply the x-coordinate by -1.

• Multiply the y-coordinate by -1.

• Add 1 to both coordinates.

• Subtract 1 from both coordinates.

What is the result of reflecting a point over the y-axis?

• The y-coordinate changes sign.

• Both coordinates change sign.

• Neither coordinate changes.

• The x-coordinate changes sign.

When reflecting a figure over the origin, what happens to its coordinates?

• Neither coordinate changes.

• Both coordinates change sign.

• Only the y-coordinate changes sign.

• Only the x-coordinate changes sign.

What happens to a figure when it is rotated 90° clockwise?

• It moves to the opposite quadrant.

• Its coordinates are switched and the new y-coordinate is negated.

• Its coordinates are switched and the new x-coordinate is negated.

• It remains in the same quadrant.

How do you rotate a point 180° on the coordinate plane?

• Negate both coordinates.

• Switch the coordinates.

• Negate the x-coordinate only.

• Negate the y-coordinate only.

What is the effect of a 90° counterclockwise rotation on a point's coordinates?

• Negate both coordinates.

• Switch the coordinates without negating.

• Switch the coordinates and negate the new y-coordinate.

• Switch the coordinates and negate the new x-coordinate.
