What is a rigid transformation? A transformation that does not change the size or shape of a figure
Preimage and Image Preimage – a shape that undergoes a motion or transformation Image – a shape that results from a transformation of a preimage
Types of Transformations Translation Rotation Reflection
Translation A transformation in which every point of the preimage is moved the same distance in the same direction Example
Rotation A transformation in which every point of the preimage is moved by the same angle through a circle centered at a given fixed point known as the center of rotation
Reflection A transformation in which every point of the preimage is moved across a line known as the mirror line so that the mirror is the perpendicular bisector of the segment connecting the point and its image
Reflection (cont’d)
