What is geometric reflection?
- The enlargement or reduction of an object
- The transformation of an object across a line, creating a mirror image
- The rotation of an object around a fixed point
REFLECTION
A reflection is a transformation that flips a shape or object over a line (often called the "line of reflection"), creating a mirror image. The size and shape of the object remain the same.
What is geometric dilation?
- A transformation that changes the size of a figure without changing its shape
- A transformation that rotates a figure around a fixed point
- A transformation that reflects a figure over a line
DILATION
Dilation is a transformation that changes the size of an object or shape while maintaining its shape and orientation. It can involve enlargement (making it larger) or reduction (making it smaller).
Pre-Image
the original shape or figure before any transformation (such as rotation, reflection, or dilation) is applied to it.
What is a geometric pre-image?
- A shape with equal sides and angles
- The original shape before any transformations
- A shape obtained after applying transformations
What is the "image" in geometry?
Image
resulting shape or figure after a transformation has been applied to the pre-image. It is the transformed version of the original shape.
What is a vector in mathematics?
- A quantity with magnitude and direction
- A shape
- A whole number
Vector
Mathematical representation of a quantity that has both magnitude (size) and direction. Vectors are often represented as arrows with a specific length and direction and are used to describe motion
Explain what is the Axis...
Imaginary straight line used as a reference to measure or describe the position, direction, or movement of objects in space. Axes can be horizontal (x-axis), vertical (y-axis), or even diagonal depending on the context.
Axis
In geometry, what is a vertex?
- The point where two or more lines meet
- An angle greater than 90 degrees
- A three-dimensional shape
VERTEX
A point where two or more lines or edges meet. It is like a corner in a shape, where the sides or edges come together. Imagine it as the point where you can turn in different directions, like the corners of a book or the meeting point of two roads.
In geometry, parallel lines are lines that:
- Always intersect
- Never intersect
- Only intersect at right angles
Perpendicular lines are lines that:
- Intersect at a 45-degree angle
- Intersect at a 90-degree angle
- Never intersect
