TRANSFORMATIONS
Types of Transformations
Reflections: These are like mirror images as seen across a line or
a point.

Translations ( or slides): This moves the figure to a new location


with no change to the looks of the figure.

Rotations: This turns the figure clockwise or


counter-clockwise but doesn’t change the figure.

Dilations: This reduces or enlarges the figure to a similar


figure.

Reflections
You can reflect a figure using a line or a point. All measures (lines
and angles) are preserved but in a mirror image.

Example: The figure is reflected across line


l.
You could fold the picture along line l and the l
left figure would coincide with the
corresponding parts of right figure.

Reflections – continued…
Reflection across the x-axis: the x values stay the same and the
y values change sign. (x , y)  (x, -y)

Reflection across the y-axis: the y values stay the same and the
x values change sign. (x , y)  (-x, y)

Example: In this figure, line l : n l


 reflects across the y axis to line n

(2, 1)  (-2, 1) & (5, 4)  (-5, 4)


 reflects across the x axis to line m.
(2, 1)  (2, -1) & (5, 4)  (5, -4) m
4
Reflections across specific lines:
To reflect a figure across the line y = a or x = a, mark the
corresponding points equidistant from the line.
i.e. If a point is 2 units above the line its corresponding image point
must be 2 points below the line.
Example:
Reflect the fig. across the line y = 1.
(2, 3)  (2, -1).
(-3, 6)  (-3, -4)
(-6, 2)  (-6, 0)

Lines of Symmetry
 If a line can be drawn through a figure so the one side of the
figure is a reflection of the other side, the line is called a “line of
symmetry.”
 Some figures have 1 or more lines of symmetry.
 Some have no lines of symmetry.

Four lines of symmetry


One line of symmetry Two lines of symmetry

Infinite lines of symmetry


No lines of symmetry
6
Translations (slides)
 If a figure is simply moved to another location without change to
its shape or direction, it is called a translation (or slide).
 If a point is moved “a” units to the right and “b” units up, then
the translated point will be at (x + a, y + b).
 If a point is moved “a” units to the left and “b” units down, then
the translated point will be at (x - a, y - b).
Example: A
Image A translates to image B by
moving to the right 3 units and down 8
units.
B
A (2, 5)  B (2+3, 5-8)  B (5, -3)
7
Composite Reflections
 If an image is reflected over a line and then that image is
reflected over a parallel line (called a composite reflection), it
results in a translation.
Example: C
A B

Image A reflects to image B, which then reflects to image C.


Image C is a translation of image A
8
Rotations
 An image can be rotated about a fixed point.
 The blades of a fan rotate about a fixed point.
 An image can be rotated over two intersecting lines by
using composite reflections.
Image A reflects over line m to B, image B reflects over line n to
C. Image C is a rotation of image A.
A

C
m
B n

Rotations
It is a type of transformation where the object is rotated around a fixed
point called the point of rotation.

When a figure is rotated 90° counterclockwise about the origin,


switch each coordinate and multiply the first coordinate by -1.
(x, y) (-y, x)
Ex: (1,2) (-2,1) & (6,2)  (-2, 6)
When a figure is rotated 180° about the
origin, multiply both coordinates by -1.
(x, y) (-x, -y)
Ex: (1,2) (-1,-2) & (6,2)  (-6, -2)
10
Angles of rotation
 In a given rotation, where A is the figure and B is the resulting
figure after rotation, and X is the center of the rotation, the
measure of the angle of rotation AXB is twice the measure of
the angle formed by the intersecting lines of reflection.

Example: Given segment AB to be rotated over lines l and m,


which intersect to form a 35° angle. Find the rotation image
segment KR. B

35 °

11
Angles of Rotation . .
 Since the angle formed by the lines is 35°, the angle of rotation is
70°.
 1. Draw AXK so that its measure is 70° and AX = XK.
 2. Draw BXR to measure 70° and BX = XR.
 3. Connect K to R to form the rotation image of segment AB.

Dilations
 A dilation is a transformation which changes the size of a figure
but not its shape. This is called a similarity transformation.
 Since a dilation changes figures proportionately, it has a scale
factor k.
• If the absolute value of k is greater than 1, the dilation is an
enlargement.
• If the absolute value of k is between 0 and 1, the dilation is a
reduction.
• If the absolute value of k is equal to 0, the dilation is
congruence transformation. (No size change occurs.)

Dilations – continued…
 In the figure, the center is C. The distance from C to E is three times the distance
from C to A. The distance from C to F is three times the distance from C to B.
This shows a transformation of segment AB with center C and a scale factor of
3 to the enlarged segment EF. E

R

C B C F
W B
 In this figure, the distance from C to R is ½ the distance from C to A. The
distance from C to W is ½ the distance from C to B. This is a transformation of
segment AB with center C and a scale factor of ½ to the reduced segment RW.
14
Dilations – examples…
Find the measure of the dilation image of segment AB, 6 units long,
with a scale factor of
1. S.F. = -4: the dilation image will be an enlargment since the
absolute value of the scale factor is greater than 1. The image will
be 24 units long.

2. S.F. = 2/3: since the scale factor is between 0 and 1, the image
will be a reduction. The image will be 2/3 times 6 or 4 units
long.

3. S.F. = 1: since the scale factor is 1, this will be a congruence


transformation. The image will be the same length as the original
segment, 1 unit long.
