1. Translation

2. How do you know you’re looking at a translation?
What does this have to do with Math?
“ Palez vous francais” means: “ Do you speak French?

3. Translation
In this lesson, you will learn about translations by looking at what happens to a figure's line segments and angle before and after it’s been translated.

4. Review
“Ripley's” ….. Believe it or not, there is a connection between translation in language and Geometry.

5. Review In language, translation is an exact replica of words spoken.
In Geometry, translation is an exact replica of a figure.

6. Geometry Translating is one way!
A translation is a kind of transformation.
In geometry, there are 4 ways to transform a shape.
Translating is one way!
Note: When you hear translate, Think slide!

7. Error
Just because two figures have the same size and shape doesn‘t necessarily mean they have been translated.
When you translate or slide a figure, every segment and angle are an exact replica of the original.

8. Translate
The original figure is called the preimage and all the translated points are called A prime, B prime, C prime, D prime, and etc…..
Basically, translation is
moving every part of the
original object in the same
direction and distance.

9. Translate
When you translate, you are creating an EXACT replica of the preimage.

10. Translate
In Geometry, when the preimage and the image have the exact same size and shape, it’s called a rigid transformation.
The translated image is in a new location but size and shapes have not been changed.

11. Translation
Realize that (x) represents a horizontal movement and (y) represents a vertical movement. (x,y)

13. Translation
In this lesson, you have learned translation by observing what happens to a figure's line segments and angles.
