Study Notes
Reflection Rules
- Reflection across the x-axis transforms coordinates as follows: (x, y) → (x, -y).
- Reflection across the y-axis transforms coordinates: (x, y) → (-x, y).
- Reflection across the line y = x swaps the coordinates: (x, y) → (y, x).
- Reflection across the line y = -x also reverses coordinates but changes their signs: (x, y) → (-y, -x).
Statements About Reflection
- For a triangle ΔXYZ reflected, only specific statements hold true regarding congruency, orientation, and relationships between vertices.
- True statements relate to angles and lengths remaining constant after reflection.
Line of Reflection
- When constructing ΔA'B'C' from ΔABC using line segment EH, certain conditions must be satisfied for EH to be the line of reflection.
- Essential truths revolve around distance preservation and point relationships.
Length After Reflection
- If the length of the segment has a specific value, after a reflection, lengths may remain unchanged or have a specific correlation based on reflective properties.
Pre-image Coordinates
- For vertex transformations after reflection, specific coordinates can determine the pre-image; critical to note are signs and positions in relation to reflection lines.
Triangle Properties After Reflection
- The reflected image of a triangle maintains congruency but may change orientation based on the line of reflection.
- Perpendicular bisectors connect corresponding vertices, forming distinct geometric properties post-reflection.
Identifying Right Triangles
- Among reflected triangles, distinctions can be made about which must necessarily be right triangles based on relationships with reflection lines and the properties of triangles.
Coordinate Transformations
- Identifying image coordinates after reflection involves understanding the geometric principles underlying each specific reflection line, such as y = x for the swapping of x and y values, with sign adjustments based on the specifics of the line in question.
