Across
- 1. in a way that is parallel to the ground or to the bottom or top edge of something
- 3. figures are considered similar if they have the same shape, but potentially different sizes
- 5. a geometric transformation that changes the size of a figure by a specific factor, called the scale factor, while preserving its shape
- 7. having the same size and shape
- 8. occupy the same relative position
- 10. a geometric transformation that turns a shape or figure around a fixed point, called the center of rotation
- 11. a vertical number line used in a coordinate plane
- 14. changes made to the position, size, or shape of a figure
- 16. the original shape or figure before a geometric transformation
Down
- 2. a rigid transformation that moves every point of a figure the same distance in the same direction lines or directions that are perpendicular to a horizontal line or plane
- 4. a transformation that creates a mirror image of a figure across a line, called the line of reflection
- 6. a movement in the opposite direction of timing as the hands of a clock normally take
- 8. movement in the same direction of timing as the hands of a clock normally take
- 9. plane the plane containing the x- and y- axes
- 12. a horizontal reference line in a two-dimensional coordinate plane
- 13. the new figure created by a transformation
- 15. factor the number by which you multiply the dimensions of a shape to enlarge or shrink it, creating a similar figure represented by the letter (K)
