What is a rotation?

Rotation is a circular movement of an object around a center of rotation.

What is translation?

A translation moves objects without changing its size or shape.

What is the rule for reflection?

the y-axis is (x,y)→(−x,y) and the x-axis is (x,y)→(x,−y).

What is the rule for rotation?

Clockwise                                   Counter Clockwise

90o (x,y)----> (y,-x)                 90(x,y)--->(-y,x)

180o(x,y)---> (-x,-y)              180o(x,y)--->(-x,-y)

270o(x,y)---> (-y,x)                270o(x,y)--->(y,-x)

360o(x,y)---> (x,y)                360o(x,y)---(x,y)

What is the rule for translation?

In a translation, every point of the object must be moved in the same direction and for the same distance, in a translation, the initial object is called the pre-image, and the object after the translation is called the image.
