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.


In a translation the original figure is called what?

In a translation, the original figure is called the "preimage." The figure that results after the translation is referred to as the "image." A translation involves moving the preimage to a new location in the coordinate plane without changing its shape or size.


What is a transformation in which you flip a figure in a mirror line?

A transformation in which you flip a figure across a mirror line is called a reflection. During this process, 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. Reflection is one of the basic geometric transformations, along with translation and rotation.

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.


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.


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 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.


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

Dilation.
