200

To "slide" a figure.

Translation

200

A dilation might change the size of a figure's side lengths but never the _______.

angles or shape

200

What transformations can be used to prove similarity. 

List them all!

1) Translations

2) Rotations

3) Reflections

4) Dilations

200

Point A has the coordinates (4, -3).  What is the scale factor used if the new coordinates are (2, - 3/2)?

Scale factor = 1/2 or 0.5

200

Complete the sentence.  Corresponding sides of similar figures are ______________________

Proportional

300

To "turn" a figure clockwise or counter clockwise

Rotation

300

Dilations always produce ___________ figures.

similar

300

If the scale factor is greater than 1 (ex:2) then the dilated image is ______________ from the original figure. 

Enlarged

300

Congruent figures are _____ similar. 

(sometimes, always)

always

300

Similar or not similar?



Not similar - angles are not the same.

400

When we describe a translation we need to be sure to say: 

1) Direction

2) Distance

400

Dilations need these two things.

1) Center Point of Dilation
2) Scale Factor

400

If the scale factor is less than 1 (ex:1/4) then the dilated image is ____________ from the original figure. 

Reduced

400

Similar figures are ____ congruent. 

(sometimes, always)

sometimes

400

Find the scale factor.  Figure EFGH is the original.


Scale factor = 2

500

Describing a rotation requires these three things. 

1) Center (Point)

2) Rotation angle (Degrees)

3) Direction (Clockwise or Counterclockwise)

500

If a square is dilated using a scale factor of 2, how many times larger will the area of the new square be?

4 times larger

500

Dilations can result in a congruent figure if their scale factor is this number. 

1

500

These two triangles are similar. Find the missing side lengths.


s=12

t=15

500

A point has the coordinates (8, -2).  What are the new coordinates after a dilation using a scale factor is 1/4 and the origin as the center of dilation?


(2, -0.5)
