Topic: Transformations

A transformation is the movement of an object from its original position to a new position.

We will look at three types of transformations.

1.  Slide

2. Flip

3. Turn

What is a slide?

A slide is the movement of an object from one place to another without turning or flipping it.

The shape looks exactly the same.

What is a flip?

A flip is a mirror image of the object, also called a reflection of the object.

What is a turn?

A turn is a rotation of the image around a point.

A quarter turn is 90 degrees.

A half turn is 180 degrees

A full turn is 360 degrees.
