State Test Review Day 8: Transformational Geometry

WHAT DO YOU NEED TO KNOW?

1) A transformation is when you change an objects orientation, location, or size. There are 4 kinds of transformations.
2) A Translation is when you move an object up, down, left or right. Size and orientation do not change.
Example – Figure A has been translated to the right and up.
3) A Rotation is when you rotate a figure around a point (usually the origin). The orientation changes but not the size.

Example – Figure A has been rotated 90 degrees clockwise.
DON’T FORGET – Turn the page the given number of degrees to reveal the ANSWER!!!
4) A reflection is when a figure is reflected “over” or “in” a line of symmetry (usually the x or y-axis).

Example – Figure A has been reflected in the y - axis.
5) A dilation is when the figures points are multiplied by a scale factor to make the figure bigger or smaller. This is the only transformation that changes the figures size.
Example – If triangle ABC has coordinates A(3, 4), B(1, 0) and C(-2, 3), what will the coordinates of the new figure be after a dilation of scale factor of 3?
A’ ______B’ ______C’ ______
