Question

the line over which a geometric shape is flipped during a reflection is called the ____. a transformation that involves sliding a shape to a new location without rotating or flipping it is known as a __. a transformation that creates a mirror image of a shape across a specified line is called a ____.

Explanation:

First Question:

In geometric transformations, the line over which a shape is flipped during reflection is defined as the line of reflection. This is a key concept in the study of reflections (a type of transformation) in geometry.

A translation is a transformation in geometry where a shape is moved (slid) from one position to another without any rotation or flipping. It preserves the shape's size, shape, and orientation, only changing its location.

A reflection is a geometric transformation that produces a mirror - image of a shape across a given line (the line of reflection). This transformation flips the shape over the specified line, creating a symmetric image with respect to that line.

Answer:

line of reflection
