Holt McDougal Geometry


The Alhambra, a 13th-century palace in Grenada, Spain,
Reflections
is famous for the geometric patterns that cover its walls
and floors. To create a variety of designs, the builders
based the patterns on several different transformations.

A transformation is a change in the position, size, or


shape of a figure. The original figure is called the
preimage. The resulting figure is called the image. A
transformation maps the preimage to the image. Arrow
notation (→) is used to describe a transformation, and
primes (’) Geometry
Holt McDougal are used to label the image.

An isometry is a transformation that does not


change the shape or size of a figure. Reflections,
translations, and rotations are all isometries.
Isometries are also called congruence
transformations or rigid motions.

Recall that a reflection is a transformation that


moves a figure (the preimage) by flipping it across
a line. The reflected figure is called the image. A
reflection is an isometry, so the image is always
congruent to the preimage.

Example 3: Identifying Reflections

Tell whether each transformation appears to


be a reflection. Explain.
A. B.

No; the image does not Yes; the image appears


Appear to be flipped. to be flipped across a
line..
