Question

match each transformation term with its correct definition from the options provided. (5 points) rigid transformation congruent line of symmetry rotation reflection translation figures of the same shape and size that can perfectly overlap a rigid motion that flips a figure across a line, creating a mirror image a motion that preserves the size and shape of a geometric figure an imaginary line that divides a figure into two identical halves a rigid motion that turns a figure around a fixed point by a specific angle

Explanation:

• Rigid Transformation: A motion that preserves the size and shape of a geometric figure.
• Congruent: Figures of the same shape and size that can perfectly overlap.
• Line of Symmetry: An imaginary line that divides a figure into two identical halves.
• Rotation: A rigid motion that turns a figure around a fixed point by a specific angle.
• Reflection: A rigid motion that flips a figure across a line, creating a mirror image.
• Translation: Not given in the definitions but is a rigid - motion that slides a figure without rotation or reflection.

Answer:

• Rigid Transformation: A motion that preserves the size and shape of a geometric figure
• Congruent: Figures of the same shape and size that can perfectly overlap
• Line of Symmetry: An imaginary line that divides a figure into two identical halves
• Rotation: A rigid motion that turns a figure around a fixed point by a specific angle
• Reflection: A rigid motion that flips a figure across a line, creating a mirror image
