The line of reflection is the perpendicular bisector of the segment connecting a point and its image under the reflection.
True
A reflection reverses the orientation of the object.
True
A transformation is a 1 to 1 motion of the plane onto a line
False
The line of reflection is parallel to the segment connecting a point and its image under the reflection.
False
A rotation reverses the orientation of the object
False
Under a reflection, any points on the line of reflection move off of the line.
False
Under a translation, the slide arrow indicates distance and direction
True
A glide reflection does not change the orientation of the object
False
Under a translation, the slide arrow only indicates direction
False
A rotation does not change the orientation of the object
True
A rotation is motion around a fixed point
True
Under a glide reflection, the line of reflection and the slide arrow must be perpendicular.
False
A translation does not change the orientation of the object.
True
Under a reflection, any points on the line of reflection stay on the line
True
A translation is a series of reflections over two intersecting lines
False
A translation is simply a flip over a fixed line
False
A rotation is a series of reflections over two parallel lines.
False
A translation is an isometry
True
A translation reverses the orientation of the object
False
An isometry is a transformation preserving distance and orientation
False
There are exactly four different isometries
True
A rotation is a series of reflections over two intersecting lines
True
There are exactly three different types of isometries
False
A transformation is a 1 to 1 motion of the plane onto itself
True
