What is a transformation?

an operation that changes a figure or shape on a Cartesian (coordinate) Plane

Which quadrant is located in the bottom right of the cartesian plane?

Quadrant 4

200

What are the negative directions you can slide a figure for a translation?

Down & Left

200
If your pre-image figure is in quadrant III and you reflect it across the y axis, what quadrant would your image be in?
Quadrant IV
200

Describe the following rotation in two ways:

90o CCW rotation or 270o CW rotation.

300

What is the axis of reflection or mirror line?

The line that a figure is being reflected over.

300

Which quadrant would the point (-3,5) be located in?

Quadrant 2

300

If point J is at (3,-4) and you translate it left 5 units & up 7 units, what would the coordinates of J' be?

(-2,3)

300

What type of reflection is shown?

A vertical reflection across the x-axis.

300
If your pre-image is located in quadrant III and it is rotated 180 degrees, what quadrant would your image be located in?
Quadrant I
400

What is the centre of rotation?

It is the point the figure is being rotated around.

400

What are the coordinates of point D?


(6,-3)

400

Point W is at (-5,0). Then a translation of 7 units right & 3 units up is applied. Finally it is translated left 2 units & down 3 units. What are the coordinates of the final image point?

(0,0) or the origin

400

If point A is located at (5,6) and it is reflected across the x-axis, what would the coordinates of point A' be?


(5,-6)


400

If your pre-image is located in quadrant II and you rotate it counter clockwise 90 degrees, what quadrant would your image be located in?

Quadrant III

500

What does congruent mean and which types of transformations produce congruent images?

Congruent means the same size and shape. Congruent shapes have the same side lengths and same angles. Congruent images are produced by translations, reflections and rotations.

500

Describe the location of point C relative to the origin.

Point C is 2 units left and 4 units down from the origin.

500
