Study Notes
Symmetry and Isometries
- An isosceles trapezoid has 1 line of symmetry.
- The letter D possesses at least one line of symmetry.
Rotational Symmetry
- A figure with rotational symmetry around its center can be rotated by an angle of 120 degrees to match the original image.
- This type of symmetry is known specifically as rotational symmetry.
Dilation
- In dilation, the dashed-lined triangle is a reduction of the solid-lined triangle with a scale factor of 1/2.
- An insect measuring 10 millimeters appears as 200 millimeters under a microscope, indicating a scale factor of 20.
Types of Isometries
- Two reflections across intersecting lines result in a transformation equivalent to a rotation.
- A particular example of isometry reveals opposite orientation between the right and left figures.
Glide Reflection
- To determine the glide reflection image of a triangle with a translation of (x,y) -> (x,y-7) and reflection line x=1, the image identified is D.
Classification of Transformations
- The transformation from JIG to DEF is classified as a rotation about the point (1,4) with an angle of 180 degrees.
