Translations, Reflections, and Rotations
In mathematics, a transformation
changes the position or orientation of a
figure. The resulting figure is the image
of the original. Images resulting from
the transformations described in the next slides are congruent to the original figures.

Types of Transformations
Translation
The figure slides along a straight line without turning.

Types of Transformations
Reflection
The figure flips across a line of reflection, creating a mirror image.

4. Reflection Line
is a line that lies in a position between two identical mirror images so that any point on one image is the same distance from the line as the same point on the other flipped image.

Rotation
The figure turns around a fixed point.

6. Angle of Rotation
The measure of degrees that a figure is rotated around a fixed point
