What is the definition of a translation in geometry?

Back

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

Front

What happens to the coordinates of a point (x, y) when it is reflected over the x-axis?

Back

The new coordinates are (x, -y).

Front

What is the definition of reflection in geometry?

Back

A reflection is a transformation that flips a figure over a line, creating a mirror image.
