An isometry preserves distances and angles between points, meaning that the shape and size of geometric figures remain unchanged. However, it does not necessarily preserve properties such as orientation (e.g., a reflection changes the orientation) or the position of points in space (e.g., a translation moves points). Additionally, while the overall configuration may remain intact, specific coordinates of points may change.

YES ---- Explanation: An isometry is a distance-preserving mapping. . Geometric figures which can be related by an isometry are called congruent. Reflection preserves distance so it is an isometry. It reverses orientation so it is called an indirect orientationl
No. While it is true for reflection in a straight line, it is not true for other reflections.
1. distance 2. angle measures 3. parallelism 4. collinearity 5. midpoint
It's a transformation that's order of the letters like ABCD of a figure don't change when transformed.
direction
A isometry is a transformation where distance (aka size) is preserved. In a dilation, the size is being altered, so no, it is not an isometry.
distance
Yes, a rotation is an isometry.
Yes, translation is part of isometry.
distance
Yes. Being congruent is part of the definition of an isometry.
An isometry is a transformation in which the original figure and its image are congruent. Shape remains constant as size increases.
Because the glide reflection is a combination of two isometries, it is also an isometry.
