1. a translation in math is...

a) when you slide a shape along the plane
b) when you flip a shape along a line of reflection
c) when you rotate a shape along a point
d) when the shape grows bigger or smaller

1. a reflection in math is...

a) when you slide a shape along the plane
b) when you flip a shape along a line of reflection
c) when you rotate a shape along a point
d) when the shape grows bigger or smaller
short answer: fill in the blanks with the most appropriate responses

1. if you were to reflect a shape that was only in quadrant iv along the x axis, what quadrant would it fall in?
2. what is the coordinate point located at (-2, -2)?

Explanation:

1. A translation in math is the sliding of a shape along a plane without rotation or resizing.
2. A reflection is flipping a shape across a line of reflection.
3. Reflecting a shape in Quadrant IV across the x - axis moves it to Quadrant I because the y - coordinates change sign.
4. On a coordinate grid, the point (-2,-2) has a negative x - coordinate and a negative y - coordinate, placing it in Quadrant III.

Answer:

1. a) When you slide a shape along the plane
2. b) When you flip a shape along a line of reflection
3. Quadrant I
4. Quadrant III
