    Study Notes

    Rotation Transformations

    • 90 Degree Counterclockwise Rotation: Transforms a point (x, y) to (-y, x).
    • 90 Degree Clockwise Rotation: Transforms a point (x, y) to (y, -x).
    • 180 Degree Rotation: Both clockwise and counterclockwise transformations change a point (x, y) to (-x, -y).
    • 270 Degree Clockwise Rotation: A point (x, y) becomes (-y, x).
    • 270 Degree Counterclockwise Rotation: A point (x, y) changes to (y, -x).

    Reflection Transformations

    • Reflection Over the X-Axis: The transformation (x, y) results in (x, -y), flipping the point over the x-axis.
    • Reflection Over the Y-Axis: The transformation (x, y) results in (-x, y), flipping the point over the y-axis.
    • Reflection Over the Line y = x: A point (x, y) maps to (y, x), switching the coordinates.
    • Reflection Over the Line y = -x: A point (x, y) transforms to (-y, -x), flipping across y = -x.

    General Concepts

    • Transformation: Refers to any change in location, size, or orientation of a figure.
    • Pre-Image: The original figure before any transformations are applied.
    • Image: The resulting figure after a transformation.
    • Reflection: A flip over a specific line of symmetry.
    • Translation: Slides a figure from one position to another without altering its shape or size.
    • Rotation: Involves turning a figure around a fixed point.

    Specific Rules

    • Translation Rule: Moves a point (x, y) to (x + a, y + b), adjusting its position by 'a' units horizontally and 'b' units vertically.
    • Example of (x, y) → (x + 1, y - 6): Indicates movement one unit right and six units down.

    Examples

    • Reflection Examples: Specific transformations showing how points change, such as reflecting a triangle over the x-axis.
    • Translation Examples: Demonstrating how figures shift on a coordinate grid.
    • Rotation Examples: Illustrating the effect of rotating shapes through angles like 90 or 180 degrees.
