Transformation Vocabulary
Across
- 2. a rigid transformation that slides every point in a figure the same direction and distance
- 3. a figure that can be moved with a rigid transformation to fit exactly over the other
- 5. to turn in the same direction as the hands of a clock
- 7. a fixed starting point from which we measure the distances in dilations
- 10. a rigid transformation that turns every point on a figure around a center in a specific direction and by s specific amount 90, 180, 270, 260.
- 11. the resulting image after a transformation
- 14. the line of a graph that runs vertically (up&down)
- 17. a set of two or more transformations performed in a given order on a figure
- 18. when the image sides are proportional to the pre-image - dilation
- 20. a rigid transformation in which a figure is flipped over a fixed line to create a mirror image
- 21. the fixed line across which a figure is flipped to create a mirrored image
- 22. when one shape is identical to the other when it is moved (usually from a reflection); a shape that can fold onto itself
- 23. a transformation in which each point on a figure moves along a line and changes its distance from a fixed point. The figure gets proportionally bigger or smaller based on scale factor.
- 24. a translation, reflection, rotation, dilation or a combination of these.
Down
- 1. to turn in the opposite direction as the hands of a clock, or to the left.
- 4. a move that does not change any measurement of a figure
- 5. a part of an original figure that matches up with a part of the copy
- 6. the point at which the x and y axis intersect, represented by the ordered pair (0,0)
- 8. the original figure before a transformation
- 9. the ratio of any two corresponding measurements in two similar figures
- 12. the line of a graph that runs horizontally
- 13. when the corresponding parts of 2 figures have the same ratio
- 15. a fixed point about which a plane figure turns
- 16. a repeating pattern of one or more shapes in which the sides fit together perfectly with no overlap
- 19. of rotation the measure of the amount that a figure is turned about a fixed point
