Rigid Transformations
Dilations
Congruence and Similarity
Stuff we totally didn't forget from last year...

These are the three basic types of rigid transformations.

What are translation, reflection, and rotation?

100

Specifying a dilation requires these two pieces of information.

What are a scale factor and a center of dilation?

100

This is the definition of congruent. 

What is "related (or connected) by a sequence of rigid transformations"?

100

Two angles that sum to 90 degrees are called this.

What are complementary angles?

Ms. Youngblood was born in and grew up in this city.

What is New York City? (Brooklyn is also an acceptable answer.)

200

This type of rigid transformation is shown in the picture below:

What is a rotation?

200

In the picture below, the triangle has this scale factor and center of dilation.

What are 3 and (3,0)?

200

Unlike two congruent shapes, two similar shapes may be related by this non-rigid transformation. 

What is a dilation?

200

This is the result when -9 is subtracted from -3.

What is 6?

Ms. Youngblood's birthday is in this month.

What is October?

300

This point is the image when the point (-3,5) is reflected across the x-axis.

What is (3,5)?

300

A dilation with a scale factor smaller than this number will cause a figure to shrink. 

What is 1?

300

If Figures A and B are similar with scale factor 2, and the largest angle in Figure A is 78 degrees, then this is the largest angle in Figure B. 

What is 78 degrees?

If 3 pounds of candy costs $13.50, then you could buy this much candy for $36.

What is 8 pounds of candy?

300

Ms. Youngblood is a devoted fan of this NFL football team...but she doesn't want to talk about it right now.

Who are The New York Jets?

400

This SPECIFIC rigid transformation takes the point (1,3) to the point (10,-5) AND takes the point (-2,0) to the point (7,-8).

What is a translation 9 units right and 8 units down?

400

This is the image of the point (2,4) after a dilation with scale factor 1/2 and center of dilation (6,3).

What is (4,3.5)?

400

This theorem could be used to prove that angles DCB and ABC below are congruent. 

What is the Alternate Interior Angle Theorem?

400

The expression 4(x-6) is equivalent to this expression that contains no parentheses.

What is 4x-24?

400

Ms. Youngblood's husband teaches math at this university.

What is UIC (The University of Illinois at Chicago)?

500

This is the number of degrees and direction that a shape must be rotated around (0,0) so that point (10,-6) on the shape goes to corresponding point (6,10).

What is 90 degrees counterclockwise?

500

These are the x and y coordinates of D', the corresponding point of D after a dilation with scale factor 4 and center of dilation (-3,0).

What are x=-7 and y=4? (Or what is (-7,4)?)

500

Triangle T has a 75 degree angle. Triangle U has  a 15 degree angle. If T and U are similar, then they must both be this type of triangle (acute, right, or obtuse). 

What is a right triangle?

500

This is the expression equivalent to the one below after it has been simplified completely. (Fractions not decimals please!)

-2x+1/2y-7x+3/4y-3/4

What is 

-9x+1 1/4y-3/4

500

This is Ms. Youngblood's favorite board game, and she played in competitive tournaments for several years during college and grad school.
