Transformations Flashcard (No Dilations)

Front

What is a Translation in geometry?

Back

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

Front

What notation is used for Translation?

Back

The notation for translation is T_{x,y}, where x and y represent the horizontal and vertical shifts.

Front

What is a Reflection in geometry?

Back

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

Front

What notation is used for Reflection?

Back

The notation for reflection is r_{line ext{ of } reflection}.

Front

What is a Rotation in geometry?

Back

A rotation is a transformation that turns a shape around a fixed point at a certain angle.

Front

What notation is used for Rotation?

Back

The notation for rotation is R_{o, ext{ degree of rotation and direction}}.

Front

What is a Pre-Image?

Back

A pre-image is the original shape before any transformation is applied.

Front

What symbol is used to designate a Pre-Image?

Back

There is no specific symbol used to designate a pre-image.

Front

What is the difference between Pre-Image and Image?

Back

The pre-image is the original shape, while the image is the shape after the transformation.

Front

What is the line of reflection?

Back

The line of reflection is the line over which a shape is reflected to create a mirror image.
