What is a type of transformation where an original figure is flipped over a line onto its image?

A type of transformation where an original figure is flipped over a line onto its image is called reflection. In this process, each point of the original figure is mapped to a corresponding point on the opposite side of the line, maintaining equal distance from the line of reflection. This creates a mirror image of the original figure.


Is rotation always creates a congruent image to the original figure?

Figures are congruent if and only if they are related by a translation, reflection, or rotation, or some combination of these transformations.


What is the transformation called when you flip a figure in a mirror line?

The transformation is called a reflection. In a reflection, each point of the figure is mapped to a corresponding point on the opposite side of the mirror line, maintaining the same distance from the line. This creates a mirror image of the original figure.


Why under transformation a figure is always congruent to its image?

A figure is always congruent to its image under transformation because congruence means that the two figures have the same shape and size. Transformations such as translations, rotations, and reflections preserve the lengths of sides and the measures of angles, ensuring that the original figure and its image maintain their geometric properties. Therefore, any transformation applied will result in an image that is congruent to the original figure.


When a figure is transatedrotated or rotated What is the same about the original figure and its image?

When a figure is translated or rotated, the original figure and its image maintain the same size and shape. Both figures retain their corresponding angles and side lengths, making them congruent. Additionally, the orientation may change during rotation, but the relative positions of the points remain consistent in translation.

What is a transformation that creates a mirror image of the original image?

A transformation that creates a mirror image of the original image is called a reflection. This transformation flips the image across a line called the axis of reflection, creating a mirror image that is a flipped version of the original.


When you change coordinates of points of a figure to get another figure the original figure is called what?

The original figure is called the pre-image. After the transformation it becomes the image.


Is rotation always creates a congruent image to the original figure?

Figures are congruent if and only if they are related by a translation, reflection, or rotation, or some combination of these transformations.


The original figure in a transformation?

What is a preimage. (The new figure is called the image.)


What is definition of image in math?

The figure that results from some transformation of a figure. It is often of interest to consider what is the same and what is different about a figure and its image EX: original Image


A mapping for which the original figure and its image are congruent?

Isometry


Which transformation does not always result in an image that is congruent to the original figure?

A dilation (or scaling) is a transformation that does not always result in an image that is congruent to the original figure. While translations, rotations, and reflections always produce congruent figures, dilations change the size of the figure, which means the image may be similar to, but not congruent with, the original figure.

What math term means copy of an original figure?

Image


What type of transformation can change the size of an image from the original figure?

Dilation.


Why under transformation a figure is always congruent to its image?

A figure is always congruent to its image under transformation because congruence means that the two figures have the same shape and size. Transformations such as translations, rotations, and reflections preserve the lengths of sides and the measures of angles, ensuring that the original figure and its image maintain their geometric properties. Therefore, any transformation applied will result in an image that is congruent to the original figure.
