A translation "slides" an object a fixed distance
in a given direction. The original object and its translation have the
same shape and size, and they face in the same direction. The word "translate" in Latin means "carried across".

Sherry took the photo to the right of a hot-air balloon floating in the sky. The shape of the photo is a perfect square. Sherry could have shot the photo other ways. Which shot would produce a photo not congruent to the photo?
Front
A - Flipping the camera upside down
B - Turning the camera 90° clockwise
C - Shooting from directly under the balloon
A reflection over a line k (notation rk) is a transformation in which each point of the original figure (pre-image) has an image that is the same distance from the line of reflection as the original point but is on the opposite side of the line. Remember that a reflection is a flip. Under a reflection, the figure does not change size.

Which sequence of transformations will produce an image that is similar, but not congruent to the original figure?
Front
A - Translate the figure 5 units to the right, and then rotate it 90°.
B - Translate the figure 3 units up, and then dilate it using a scale factor of 2.
C - Reflect the original figure across a line, and then rotate it 180°.
D - Reflect the original figure across two parallel lines.

What is a dilation?
Front
A dilation is a transformation that produces an image that is the same shape as the original, but is a different size. A dilation used to create an image larger than the original is called an enlargement. A dilation used to create an image smaller than the original is called a reduction.

If you transformed a square using only reflections, rotations, and translations, what would be true about the resulting figure?
Front
A - It will be a quadrilateral, but the side lengths may have changed depending on the rotations and reflections used.
B - It will be a rectangle, but not necessarily a square.
C - It will be a square, but possibly a different size from the original square.
D - It will be a square that is congruent to the original square.

What DOES NOT change in a rotation?
Front
Parallel lines, lengths, angle measures, position or points related to other points, exact location of the shape compared to the paper, exact location of the shape on the table

What is a rotation?
Front
A rotation is a transformation that turns a figure about a fixed point called the center of rotation. An object and its rotation are the same shape and size, but the figures may be turned in different directions

What is a stretch or compression in one direction?
Front
-A horizontal stretching is the stretching of the graph away from the y-axis.
A horizontal compression is the squeezing of the graph towards the y-axis.

A vertical compression is the squeezing of the graph towards the x-axis.
