Categories of Transformations
● The rigid transformation, which does not change the shape or size of the preimage.
● The non-rigid transformation, which will change the size but not the shape of the
preimage.
Types of Transformation
● Translation
○ is when we slide a figure in any direction.
○ moving an object in space without changing its size, shape or orientation.
● Reflection
○ is when we flip a figure over a line.
○ flipping an object across a line without changing its size or shape.
● Rotation
○ is when we rotate a figure a certain degree around a point.
○ rotating an object about a fixed point without changing its size or shape.
● Dilation
○ is when we enlarge or reduce a figure.
○ expanding or contracting an object without changing its shape or orientation.
STATISTICS
● Data is a collection of information from facts, statistics, numbers, characteristics,
observations, and measurements that represent an idea.
○ Two Forms of Data
■ Quantitative data deals with the quantity.
■ Qualitative data deals with the description of things and can be observed
but not measured.
○ Mode- is the number that is repeated more often than any other.
