Geometry – Easter Break AssignmentMs. Hahl

Directions: This packet is to be completed by you over Easter break. All answers are to be placed on the provided answer sheet, with necessary work on the back. This assignment is due Monday April 12th. You must hand in the answer sheet to the Math Office (E114) before 8:30 AM in the designated “Ms. Hahl” box. Absolutely no late assignments will be accepted. This assignment will be graded as a quiz. If you have any questions please e-mail me.

Transformations

A transformation occurs when the size or position of an original figure is changed.

An algebraic rule, called a mapping, defines a transformation by assigning ordered pairs of the

coordinate plane to new locations

If the points of a given figure are labeled with letters such as A, B, and C, then their

transformation image has points labeled with the same letter and a prime sign (‘), such as A’,

B’ and C’. The original points are called the pre-image.

Line Symmetry

If a figure has line symmetry, a line can be drawn through the figure such that both sides of the

figure are “mirror images” of each other. Such a line is called the axis of symmetry.

A figure may have more than one line of symmetry or no lines of symmetry.

Example: Given the shape on the right, draw the line(s) of symmetry.


Do Now: Draw the line(s) of symmetry in each figure.

1. 2. 3. 4.

Point Symmetry

A figure is said to have point symmetry if the figure coincides with itself when rotated 180°

about a point. This point is called the point of symmetry.

(To determine if a figure has point symmetry, turn it upside down. If it’s in the same position as

it originally was, it has point symmetry)

Do Now: Determine if each figure below has point symmetry. (Write Yes or No)

5. 6. 7. 8. 9.

Line Reflections

A line reflection is a transformation in which a figure is reflected over a given line as if in a mirror.

Each point of the reflection image is the same distance from the line of reflection as

the point from the original figure.

Line Reflection Mapping Rules

A.) A reflection in the x-axis

P(x,y)P’(x, -y) (Look at what happened to the point: x stayed the same

and y became negative.)

B.) A reflection in the y-axis

P(x,y)P’(-x, y) (Look at what happened to the point: x became negative

and y stayed the same.)

C.) A reflection in the line y = x

P(x,y)P’(y, x) (Look at what happened to the point: the x and y

switched places.)

D.) A reflection in the line y = -x

P(x,y)P’(-y, -x) (Look at what happened to the point: x and y switched

places and both became negative.)

E.) A reflection in the line x = k. (Any vertical line)

P(x,y)P’(2k-x,y)

F.) A reflection in the line y = k. (Any horizontal line)

P(x,y)P’(x, 2k-y)

Example: Reflect the point (2, -1) in each line below. (Use the rules above)

1.) In the y-axis: (2,-1) (-2,-1)

2.) In the x-axis: (2,-1) (2,1)

3.) In the line y = x: (2,-1) (-1,2)

4.) In the line y = -x: (2,-1) (1,-2)

5.) In the line x = 3: (2,-1) (2(3)-2, -1) = (4, -1)

6.) In the line y = 6: (2,-1) (2, 2(6)- -1) = (2, 13)

Do Now: Reflect each point below in the given line.

1.) A(6,7) ______2.) B(-3,3) ______

3.) C(-1,2) ______4.) D(9,2) ______

5.) E (3,-5) ______6.) F(-7,5) ______

Point Reflections

If a figure is reflected through point P, then P is the midpoint of the line segment joining a

point to its image.

Point Reflection Mapping Rules:

*Must use midpoint formula*

The point of reflection is the midpoint of a given point and its image.

Label the point of reflection (, ) Label the given point (, ) and its image (,)

Example 1: What is the image of A(3,5) under a reflection in the point (-1, 2)

(Here the point of reflection (-1,2) is the midpoint and (3,5) is the given point)

Write the formula

Substitute

(-2 = , 4 = ) Cross multiply and Solve for x and y

Answer: A’(-5,-1)

Example 2: What is the point of reflection that maps A(2,-6) to A’(10,4)?

(Here you are looking for the midpoint which is the point of reflection)

Write the formula

Substitute and simplify

Answer: Point of Reflection: (6,-1)

Do Now:

1.) Find the image of the point R(-7,1) under a reflection in the point (0,0).

2.) What is the image of A(8,1) under a reflection in the point (4, 1)?

3.) What is the point of reflection that maps B(2,2) to B’(-3,4)?

4.) What is the point of reflection that maps D(7,3) to B’(1,-3)?

Translations

A translation is a transformation in which a figure slides a certain distance.

Translation Mapping Rule:

(x,y) (x+a, y+b)Add the first number to the x and the second number to y

Example: What is the image of A(-2,1) under the transformation ?

A(-2,1) A’(-2+5, 1+-1)

A’(3,0)

Do Now:

1.) What is the image of B(9,3) under the transformation ?

2.) What is the image of C(8,0) under the transformation ?

3.) What is the image of D(-1,-3) under the transformation ?

Dilations

A dilation is a transformation in which the size of a figure is changed and the figure is moved.

The constant of dilation is also called the scale factor.

Dilation Mapping Rule:

(x,y) (kx, ky) (Multiply each coordinate by the scale factor)

Example: Find the image of A(2,-4) under a dilation of 5.

A(2,-4) A’(5(2),5(-4))

A’ (10, -20)

Do Now:

1.) B(6,-3) ______2. G(-2,6) ______

3.) C(3,12) ______4. D(-1,-5) ______

Rotations

A rotation is a transformation in which a figure is turned around a point called the point of rotation.

  • Counterclockwise rotations are positive
  • Clockwise rotations are negative

Rotation Mapping Rules:

1.) Rotation of 90° and Rotation of -270°

(x,y) (-y,x) and (x,y) (-y,x) (It’s the same rule for both rotations)

2.) Rotation of 180° and Rotation of -180°

(x,y) (-x,-y) and (x,y) (-x,-y) (It’s the same rule for both rotations)

3.) Rotation of 270° and Rotation of -90°

(x,y) (y,-x) and (x,y) (y,-x) (It’s the same rule for both rotations)

4.) Rotation of 360° and Rotation of -360°

(x,y) (x,y) and (x,y) (x,y) (It’s the same rule for both rotations)

Example: Rotate the following points

1.) (6,2) (-2,6)2.) (7,-5) (-5,-7)

3.) (12,4) (-12,-4)4.) (-6,2) (-6,2)

Do Now:

1.) (-5,-2) ______2.) (6,-1) ______

3.) (-2,-3) ______4.) (8,5) ______
