What is a translation?

Back

A translation is a type of transformation that moves every point of a figure the same distance in the same direction.

How do you describe a translation?

Back

A translation can be described by specifying the direction and distance each point moves, such as 'up 1 unit and right 2 units'.

How do you find the measure of an interior angle in a triangle?

Back

The sum of the interior angles in a triangle is always 180 degrees. You can find the measure of an unknown angle by subtracting the sum of the known angles from 180 degrees.

What is a rotation in geometry?

Back

A rotation is a transformation that turns a figure around a fixed point, known as the center of rotation.

What does it mean to rotate a figure 180 degrees?

Back

Rotating a figure 180 degrees means turning it halfway around a point, resulting in a figure that is upside down.

How can you determine if two line segments can be rotated to match each other?

Back

Two line segments can be rotated to match each other if they are of equal length and can be aligned through a rotation around a point.

Front

What is the result of rotating a point 180 degrees around another point?

Back

The result of rotating a point 180 degrees around another point is a new point that is directly opposite the original point, at an equal distance from the center of rotation.
