a) flip

b) slide

c) turn

c) turn

What is the measure of angle A'B'C'?

65 degrees.  Angle measures stay the same.

300

What axis does the following reflect over (x or y)?

Y axis

300

Point P is at (4,-2).  It is rotated 180 degrees about the origin.  What are the coordinates of point P'?

(-4,2)

300

An angle of rotation with ______________ degrees turns an image counter-clockwise

Positive

400

Which axis does each of these translations occur on?

Translating a figure 2 units to the right and 3 units down.  

Translating a figure 2 units to the right: x-axis

3 units down - y-axis

400

Which vector was T translated along to get T '?

Vector AB

400

Which of the above demonstrates a reflection?


Figure 2.

(Figure 1 is a slide - a translation.)

400

Puzzle piece C

400

An angle of rotation with a negative number of degrees turns a figure ______________

clockwise.

500

What type of transformation has this red figure undergone to get the blue image?

Translation 

If it was a reflection, the points would be labeled differently.

Line L is translated along vector CD.  Without seeing the line or the vector, what can you say about the relationship between line L and line L'

The lines will be parallel (or they will coincide)

500

A' 1 is correctly reflected.
