Which transformation is not an isometry?
Dilation.
Which transformation is not always an isometry?
Dilation
What is an isometry?
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.
What transformation is not an isometry?
Dilation - the image created is not congruent to the pre-image
Why is a dilation not an isometry?
Because the image is not the same size as the preimage. To do a dilation all you do is make the image smaller or larger than it was before.

Is a rotation an isometry?
Yes, a rotation is an isometry.
Is a translation an Isometry?
Yes, translation is part of isometry.
A preimage and an image are congruent in an isometry?
Yes. Being congruent is part of the definition of an isometry.
Explain why a glide reflection is an isometry?
Because the glide reflection is a combination of two isometries, it is also an isometry.
What is Isometry?
An isometry is a transformation in which the original figure and its image are congruent. Shape remains constant as size increases.
An isometry can be illustrated with a graphing calculator. Which function rule matches the isometry?
(x,y) (-x,-y)
An isometry is a transformation that preserves?
no
