The geometric process that enlarges or reduces an image.
The letter that is used for a scale factor.
What is dilation?
What is k?
Two figures are ______ if the angles are congruent and the length of the sides is proportional
What is similar?
The angle of this rotation.
What is 180 degrees?
When we reflect across the x-axis, the only part of the coordinate that changes.
The y value
What a translation is.
What is sliding of an image horizontally and/or vertically?
A triangle has vertices A (1, 1) B (-3, 2) and C (4, 0). Dilate the figure using a scale factor of 3.
What is A' (3, 3) B' (-9, 6) and C' (12, 0)?
Two figures are _______ if they are the same size and shape.
What is congruent?
When rotated as shown, the coordinates of B1.
What is (-1, -4)
Is this reflection?
What is no, this is a translation.
Describe this translation.
What is 7 right.
If the scale factor is less than 1 then the dilated image is ______ than the original
What is smaller?
Is it possible for a stop sign and home plate to be similar?
What is no?
The two transformations that happened to the blue shape to make the green shape?
What are rotation and dilation?
The coordinate for A' when the figure is reflected across the y axis.
What is (5,1)?
The translation shown on the graph.
What is right 4, down 9?
The scale factor, k, for this enlargement. Remember new point divided by old point. This will be an improper fraction.
What is 3/2?
Are they similar? How do you know?
What is yes because if two angles of a triangle are the same, then the triangles are similar?
The preimage is green and the image is blue. Describe the rotation.
What is 90 degrees counterclockwise.
The two transformations that happened to the big shape to make the small shape.
What are reflection and dilation (reduction)?
The coordinate of B' when the triangle is translated left 2 down 4.
What is (-6, -1)?
Scale factor going from small to large figure.
What is 3?
Similar or not, explain.
What is yes, because the ratio of 120/180 is 12/18 or 2/3 and the ratio of 90/135 is also 2/3 (factor of 45).
A', B' and C' after rotating 90 degrees around the origin.
What are
The exact descriptions of the transformation of the blue figure into the red figure.
What is reflection across the x axis and then translation 6 to the right.
Ignore the yellow figure. What will be the coordinate of R' after translating the blue triangle up 7, right 9?
R (1, -9)
What is (10, -2)?
