    A translation slides a figure across a plane without changing its size or shape. A rotation turns a figure around a center of rotation. A reflection flips a figure over a line of reflection so it becomes a mirror image. A dilation enlarges or reduces a figure by a scale factor, changing its size but maintaining its shape. These transformations—translation, rotation, reflection, and dilation—are ways to change the position or size of geometric figures.

    TRANSLATIONS,

    ROTATIONS, REFLECTIONS,
    AND DILATIONS
    Demonstrate understanding of translations,
    reflections, rotations and dilations

    In geometry, a
    transformation is
    a way to change
    the position of a
    figure.

    In some transformations, the


    figure retains its size and only its
    position is changed.
    Examples of this type of
    transformation are:
    translations, rotations, and
    reflections
    In other transformations, such as
    dilations, the size of the figure
    will change.

    TRANSLATI

    TRANSLATION
    A translation is a transformation
    that slides a figure across a plane
    or through space.
    With translation all points of a
    figure move the same distance
    and the same direction.

    TRANSLATION
    Basically, translation means that
    a figure has moved.
    An easy way to remember what
    translation means is to

    LOCATION.

    A translation is usually specified


    by a direction and a distance.

    translated to become triangle A.

    Describe the translation.


    Triangle A is slide directly to the right.

    translated to become arrow A.

    ROTATION

    ROTATION
    A rotation is a transformation
    that turns a figure about (around)
    a point or a line.
    Basically, rotation means to spin
    a shape.
    The point a figure turns around is
    called the center of rotation.
    The center of rotation can be on
    or outside the shape.

    REFLECTION
    A reflection is a transformation
    that flips a figure across a line.

    A REFLECTION IS FLIPPED OVER A LINE.

    CONCLUSION
    We just discussed three types of
    transformations.
    See if you can match the action
    with the appropriate
    transformation.

    ROTATION

    Translation, Rotation, and


    Reflection all change the position
    of a shape, while the size remains
    the same.
    The fourth transformation that
    we are going to discuss is called
    dilation.

    DILATION
    Dilation changes the size of the
    shape without changing the
    shape.
    When you go to the eye doctor,
    they dilate you eyes. Lets try it
    by turning off the lights.
    When you enlarge a photograph
    or use a copy machine to reduce
    a map, you are making dilations.

    DILATION
    Enlarge means to make a shape
    bigger.
    Reduce means to make a shape
    smaller.
    The scale factor tells you how
    much something is enlarged or
    reduced.

    DILATION
    Notice each time the shape transforms
    the shape stays the same and only the
    size changes.
