Flashcards: Geometric Transformation Fundamentals — 10 cards

Figure transformations — types?

Translation, rotation, reflection, dilation.

Transformation — definition?

Changes a figure's position, size, or shape.

Translation — property?

Moves figure without changing size or shape.

Translation — role?

Shifts a figure without rotating or resizing.

Rotation — angle measure?

Turns figure around a point by a specific degree.

Rotation — effect?

Turns a figure around a fixed point.

Reflection — outcome?

Creates a mirror image over a line.

Dilation — purpose?

Resizes figure proportionally from a center.

Isometry — meaning?

Distance-preserving transformation.

Transformation sequence — importance?

Order affects the final image.
