Transformations on the Coordinate Plane<br />

Transform Figures Transformations are movements of geometric figures. The<br />

preimage is the position of the figure before the transformation, <strong>and</strong> the image is the<br />

position of the figure after the transformation.<br />

Reflection A figure is flipped over a line.<br />

Translation A figure is slid horizontally, vertically, or both.<br />

Dilation A figure is enlarged or reduced.<br />

Rotation A figure is turned around a point.<br />

Example<br />

Determine whether each transformation is a reflection, translation,<br />

dilation, or rotation.<br />

a. The figure has been flipped over a line, so this is a reflection.<br />

b. The figure has been turned around a point, so this is a rotation.<br />

c. The figure has been reduced in size, so this is a dilation.<br />

d. The figure has been shifted horizontally to the right, so this is a<br />

translation.<br />

Exercises<br />

Determine whether each transformation is a reflection, translation, dilation, or<br />

rotation.<br />
