Define Translation
When you slide a figure or point.
Define Reflection.
When you flip or make a mirror image of a figure or point.
Define Rotation
When you turn a figure or point. (can be clockwise or counterclockwise)
Define Dilation.
When you enlarge or shrink a figure or point by multiplying it a scale factor.
Define Composite Transformation.
When you use more than one transformation on a figure or point.
Drawing of the flower (3rd image)
Describe the translation:
(x-5, y+3)
Slide the figure or point 5 units to the left and 3 units up.
What is the algebraic rule for reflecting over the line y=-x.
(x,y) --> (-y, -x)
What is the algebraic rule for rotating a figure 90 degrees counterclockwise?
(x,y) ---> (-y, x)
What is the algebraic rule when dilating a point with the scale factor 4.
(x,y)---> 4(x,y) ---> (4x, 4y)
B. rotation of 180 about the origin
Orange (3rd image)
B' (5,4)
C' (5,7)
D' (7,10)
Reflection over y-axis
What is the algebraic rule for 180 degrees clockwise?
(x,y)----> (-x,-y)
Triangle ABC is being dilated by scale factor 1/4. Is the triangle enlarging or shrinking? How do you know?
Shrinking. The scale factor is less than 1, so that is why the triangle is shrinking.
What would the algebraic rule be if a figure reflected over the x-axis and rotated 180 degrees?
(x,y) ----> (x,-y) ----> (-x,--y)----> (-x,y)
Explain how you know if something has reflection symmetry.
One half of the figure is the reflection of the other half.

Write the coordinates of the vertices after a translation 8 units right and 1 unit down.
B' (-2,2)
C' (4,2)
D' (-6, 7)
Point A (-2,3) is the preimage of A'(-3,-2)
What rotation rule happened to go from Point A to Point A' clockwise?
270 clockwise
Describe the dilation
(3,6) ----> (6, 12)
Dilated by scale factor 2
D. Reflection across the line y=x
Explain how you know a figure has rotation symmetry
The figure looks the same after some rotation.
(x+6, y+9)
6 units to the right; 9 units up
B' (7, -9)
C' (7, -5)
D' (6, -3)
E' (6, -7)
Describe the rotation.

180 rotation
C. 120 degrees ccw rotation
