Question

for each pair of figures below, choose how they are related. translation reflection rotation none of these translation reflection rotation none of these translation reflection rotation none of these translation reflection rotation none of these

Explanation:

• First pair: The figures are mirror images of each other. A reflection (flip) over a vertical line would map one figure onto the other.
• Second pair: The orientation of the figures is different. A rotation (turn) is needed to map one figure onto the other.
• Third pair: The orientation of the figures is different. A rotation (turn) is needed to map one figure onto the other.
• Fourth pair: The figures have the same shape, size, and orientation. A translation (slide) would map one figure onto the other.

Answer:

• First pair: Reflection
• Second pair: Rotation
• Third pair: Rotation
• Fourth pair: Translation
