Understanding Geometric Translations

This video tutorial introduces geometric transformations, focusing on translation. It explains the concept of translation, where every point of a shape is moved in a straight line in the same direction and distance. The tutorial provides examples, discusses properties, and demonstrates how to calculate new points after translation. It concludes with a call to explore additional resources for further learning.

Which of the following is NOT a type of geometric transformation discussed in the video?

• Translation

• Reflection

• Rotation

• Scaling

How do you determine the new coordinates of a point after translation?

• By adding the translation vector to the original coordinates

• By subtracting the translation vector from the original coordinates

• By multiplying the original coordinates by the translation vector

• By dividing the original coordinates by the translation vector
