1. when a polygon is rotated 360 degrees around its center, what is the result?

a. the polygon is reduced
b. the polygon is enlarged

Explanation:

Question 1

Translation in geometry moves a figure without altering its shape, size, or color—only its position. So option a is correct.

Mirror - image triangles are related by reflection (like a mirror flip). Translation moves, rotation turns, shearing distorts—reflection creates mirror images. So option d is correct.

In a coordinate plane, the x - coordinate represents the horizontal (left - right) position of a point, while the y - coordinate is vertical. So option a is correct.

Answer:

a. Changes its position
