Sarah drew a triangle on a coordinate plane. She then moved every point of the triangle 4 units to the right and 3 units down. Which of the following describes this transformation?


A. A translation of (x+4, y-3)
B. A translation of (x-4, y+3)
C. A rotation of 90° clockwise
D. A reflection over the x-axis

A. A translation of (x+4, y-3)

b) y-coordinate
c) Both x and y coordinates
d) Neither coordinate

a) x-coordinate

Jake is playing with a mirror and notices that when he holds it up to his favorite comic book character, the reflection looks exactly like the original image but reversed. He measures the distance between the comic book and the mirror and finds it's 8 inches. How far behind the mirror's surface does the reflected image appear to be? 

The reflected image appears to be 8 inches behind the mirror's surface.

The image of A=(5,-8) after translating 9 units up and 7 units to the right has been applied.


A'=(13,1)

300

How is a reflection different from a translation? 


Reflection FLIPS/MIRRORS the polygon whereas translation SLIDES the polygon.


Translations keep the same orientation

True or False.

Rotating a point 180° clockwise will bring it to the same location as rotating that point 180° counterclockwise

True

Emma takes one triangle and reflects it over its right side to create a rhombus. Then, she rotates this image 120° counterclockwise around its center point. How many rigid transformations did Emma perform in total, and what are they?

Emma performed 2 rigid transformations:

  1. Reflection
  2. Rotation

The local art museum has a unique floor tile pattern made up of congruent hexagons. The curator wants to rotate one of the hexagonal tiles 90 degrees clockwise around its center point to create a new design. Will this rotation change the size or shape of the hexagon?

No, the rotation will not change the size or shape of the hexagon.

B. (1, 0)
C. (1, 4)
D. (7, 0)

C. (1, 4)

A''=(-3,-6)
