Question

match each vocab word to its definition:
______ 8. translation a) moves points along circular paths around a specific point
______ 9. reflection b) the shape/object before a transformation
______ 10. rotation c) moves points the same distance and direction
______ 11. image d) the shape/object after a transformation
______ 12. pre-image e) moves points across a specific line so that the pre-image and image points are equidistant (the same distance) from that line.

Explanation:

• For "Translation": Recall the definition of translation in geometry, which is moving points the same distance and direction. So it matches option c.
• For "Reflection": Reflection moves points across a line with pre - image and image equidistant from the line, matching option e.
• For "Rotation": Rotation moves points along circular paths around a point, matching option a.
• For "Image": The image is the shape after transformation, matching option d.
• For "Pre - image": The pre - image is the shape before transformation, matching option b.

Answer:

1. c) moves points the same distance and direction
2. e) moves points across a specific line so that the pre - image and image points are equidistant (the same distance) from that line.
3. a) moves points along circular paths around a specific point
4. d) the shape/object after a transformation
5. b) the shape/object before a transformation
