Transformations

The document outlines four types of geometric transformations: translation, rotation, reflection, and dilation. Each transformation is defined with examples, including how to calculate coordinates after the transformation. The document emphasizes the properties of shapes before and after transformations, such as maintaining shape in translations and reflections, and changing size in dilations.

To transform something is to change

it. In geometry, there are specific


ways to describe how a figure is
changed. The transformations you
will learn about include:
•Translation
•Rotation
•Reflection
•Dilation
I.

TRANSLATIONS
A Translation “slides” an object a
fixed distance in a given direction.
The original object and its translation
have the same shape and size and
they face in the same direction.
Translations are SLIDES.
Let's examine
some
coordinate geometry.
translations

The example
shows how each
vertex moves the
same distance in
the same
direction.
Write the Points
• What are the coordinates
for A, B, C?
A (-4,5) B (-1,1) C (-4,-1)
• What are the coordinates
for A’, B’. C’?
A’ (2,5) B’ (5,1) C’ (2,-1)
• How are they alike?
They are similar triangles

• How are they different?


Each vertex slides 6 units to the right
Write the points
• What are the
coordinates for A, B,
C, D? A (2, 4) B (4, 4)
C (5, 2) D (2, 1)
• What are the
coordinates for A’, B’,
C’, D’? A’ (-5, 1)
B’ (-3, 1) C’ (-2, -1) D’ (-5, -2)
• How did the
transformation change
the points?
The figure slides 7 units to
the left and 3 units down

Rotate “About Vertex”
• Draw the first shape with the points given
• Then rotate it at the vertex (both figures will
still touch) the amount given and in the
direction given (clockwise/counterclockwise)
• Give the new points to the figure
Rotate “About Origin”
90o Rotation 180o Rotation 270o Rotation
(x, y) (y, -x) (x, y) (-x, -y) (x, y) (-y, x)

*your original point will flip *your original point will flip
*your original point will
flop and your original x value flop and your original y value
remain as it is, but will
will become the opposite sign will become the opposite sign
become the opposite signs

These will only work if the figure is being rotated CLOCKWISE


If it’s asking for COUNTERCLOCKWISE rotation,
then 90o = 270o and 270o = 90o
Examples…
Triangle DEF has vertices
D(-4,4), E(-1,2), & F(-3,1). D D’
F’
What are the new
E
coordinates of the figure if it
is rotated 90o clockwise F E’
around the origin?

90o … (x, y) (y, -x)


•D(-4,4) = D’(4,4)
•E(-1,2) = E’(2,1)
•F(-3,1) = F’(1,3)
III.

REFLECTION
A reflectioncan be seen in water, in a mirror, in glass,
or in a shiny surface. An object and its reflection have
same shape and size , but the figures face in opposite
the
directions . In a mirror, for example, right and left are
switched.
Line reflections are
FLIPS!!!
The line (where a mirror may be placed) is called the
reflection The distance from a point to the
line of reflection.
line of reflection is the same as the distance from
the point's image to the line of reflection.
A reflection can be thought of as a "flipping" of an object over
the line of reflection.

original, but is a different

How to find a dilation
• You will multiply both the x and y-
coordinates for each point by the scale
factor.
• Scale factors will be given to you.
Example…
A figure has vertices F(-1, 1),
G(1,1), H(2,-1), and I(-1,-1).
Graph the figure and the
image of the figure after a
dilation with a scale factor of
3.

F(-1, 1) = F’(-3, 3)
G(1, 1) = G’(3, 3)
H(2, -1) = H’(6, -3)
I(-1, -1) = I’(-3, -3)
How to find a scale factor
• Take the measurement of both the original
image and the dilated one and set up a ratio

• Measurement of dilation = divide #s


Measurement of original
Example…
• Through a microscope, the image of a grain
of sand with a 0.25-mm diameter appears to
have a diameter of 11.25-mm. What is the
scale factor of the dilation?
• Diameter of dilation = 11.25 =
Diameter of original 0.25

*Scale factor is 45.
