Translations and Reflections

Front

What is the algebraic notation of a figure that is Translated 9 units right and 3 units down?

Back

(x, y) --> (x + 9, y - 3)

Front

When you reflect a shape, you ______ over an axis or line.

Back

Flip

Front

When translating up or down on a coordinate plane, what coordinate is affected?

Back

y-coordinate

Front

What is the transformation called when a shape is flipped over an axis?

Back

Reflection

Front

What is the algebraic notation of a figure that is Translated 6 units right and 5 units up?

Back

(x, y) --> (x + 6, y + 5)

Front

What is the effect of a translation on the coordinates of a shape?

Back

The x-coordinate and y-coordinate are adjusted based on the direction and distance of the translation.

Front

What is the difference between translation and reflection?

Back

Translation moves a shape without changing its orientation, while reflection flips a shape over a line.

Front

If a point (2, 3) is reflected over the x-axis, what are the new coordinates?

Back

(2, -3)

Front

What happens to the coordinates of a shape when it is reflected over the y-axis?

Back

The x-coordinates change sign; (x, y) becomes (-x, y).

Front

What is the algebraic notation for a reflection over the y-axis?

Back

(x, y) --> (-x, y)
