What is Rigid Motion?

Back

Rigid motion is a transformation that preserves distance and angle measures, meaning the shape and size of the figure remain unchanged.

2.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What are the types of Rigid Motion Transformations?

Back

The main types of rigid motion transformations are translations, rotations, and reflections.

3.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

Define Translation in Rigid Motion.

Back

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

4.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the rule for translating a point (x, y) right 2 and down 5?

Back

The new coordinates will be (x + 2, y - 5).

5.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is a Rotation in Rigid Motion?

Back

Rotation is a transformation that turns a figure around a fixed point called the center of rotation.

6.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

How do you perform a 90° counterclockwise rotation on a point (x, y)?

Back

The new coordinates will be (-y, x).

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is a Reflection in Rigid Motion?

Back

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