Transformations in Geometry

The video tutorial demonstrates how to perform a double transformation on a trapezoid in a coordinate grid. It begins with the coordinates of trapezoid ABCD and explains the process of dilation with a scale factor of 1/2, resulting in a smaller shape. Next, it covers rotating the image 180 degrees around the origin, using the algebraic rule of negative x and negative y. Finally, the video combines both transformations into a single step, providing a comprehensive understanding of the process.

What is the initial shape used for the double transformation demonstration?

• Triangle

• Trapezoid

• Circle

• Square

What is the purpose of dilation in transformations?

• To rotate an object

• To reflect an object

• To make an object larger or smaller

• To change the color

What is the algebraic rule for dilation with a scale factor of 1/2?

• 2X, 2Y

• X/2, Y/2

• X+2, Y+2

What is the significance of the scale factor being less than 1 in dilation?

• The shape changes color

• The shape decreases in size

• The shape increases in size

• The shape remains the same
