Transformations: Rorations Flashcards
(46 cards)
Pre-image
A figure that is about undergo a transformation
Transformation
A function that moves something along a coordinate plane
Image
A figure that has undergone my transformation
Distance Preserving
The distance between the image of the two points is always equal to the distance between the pre-image of the two points
Angle preserving
The angle measure of the image is equal to the angle measure of the pre-image
What do you need to perform a rigid motion rotation?
The center of rotation and direction
Rotational Symmetry
If a figure is it’s own image under a center of rotation and the center of the rotation is the only fixed point
Order of Rotational Symmetry
The number of degrees a figure must be rotated in order to see an identical image
Positive rotations
Counter-clockwise
Negative Rotations
Clockwise
How do u name the equivalent rotation?
Subtract the # by 360
Rotation of 180 degrees
P(x,y)–p’(-x,-y)
Rotation of 90 degrees
P(x,y)–p’(-y,x)
Rotation of -90 degrees
P(x,y)–p’(y,-x)
Rotation of 360 degrees
P(x,y)–p’(x,y) (orientation is maintained)
Rotation of 270 degrees
P(x,y)–p’(y,-x)
After a rotation, point P= P’
Point P and point P’ were two distinct points located on the same arc of rotation
Point P and point P’ were two distinct points equidistant from the center of rotation
Rotation over the y axis (ry-axis)
P(x,y)–P’(-x,y)
Rotation over the x axis (rx-axis)
P(x,y)–P’(x,-y)
Reflection over the line y=x
P(x,y)–P’(y,x)
Reflection in the line y=-x
P(x,y)–P’(-y,-x)
Basic Rigid Motion (Isometry)
A transformation that preserves lengths of two segments and measures of angles
Rigid motion
Performing a transformation that didn’t change the size/ angle measure
R o=
R 180
