Transformational Geometry Concepts

The video tutorial introduces transformational geometry, focusing on translation. It explains translation as sliding an object in any direction and provides three examples: moving a triangle to the right, downward, and in a combined direction. Each example includes step-by-step instructions on adjusting coordinates and plotting the new position on a coordinate plane.

What are the four types of transformational geometry?

• Translation, Scaling, Rotation, Dilation

• Translation, Reflection, Rotation, Dilation

• Dilation, Scaling, Translation, Reflection

• Reflection, Scaling, Rotation, Translation

Which type of transformation involves sliding an object?

• Reflection

• Translation

• Dilation

• Rotation

In translation, which coordinate is affected when moving an object to the right?

• X-coordinate

• Both X and Y coordinates

• Y-coordinate

• Z-coordinate

What is the effect on the X-coordinate when an object is translated to the left?

• It increases

• It decreases

• It remains the same

• It doubles

What is the effect on the Y-coordinate when an object is translated upward?

• It increases

• It decreases

• It remains the same

• It doubles

What is the effect on the X-coordinate when an object is translated to the right?

• It remains the same

• It increases

• It doubles

• It decreases

What is the new X-coordinate of point A (-5, 3) after translating seven units to the right?

• 7

• 3

• 5

• 2

After translating triangle ABC seven units to the right, what is the new coordinate of point B?

• (6, 1)

• (3, 1)

• (4, 1)

• (2, 3)

What is the new coordinate of point C after translating seven units to the right?

• (6, 1)

• (8, 1)

• (5, 1)

• (7, 1)

What is the rule for translating an object seven units to the right?

• (X + 7, Y)

• (X, Y - 7)

• (X - 7, Y)

• (X, Y + 7)
