TEKS
Two-dimensional shapes. The students applies mathematical process
standards to develop transformational geometry concepts. The student is
expected to:
(A) generalize the properties of orientation and congruence of rotation,
reflection, translation, and dilations of two-dimensional shapes on a
coordinate plane
(B) differentiate between transformations that preserve congruence and
those that do not
Transformation
Function which map points of a pre-image onto its image.

Translation
A function from the plane to the plane such that the image of the point with
coordinate (x.y) is (x+a)(y+b) where a and b are real numbers
Example translation
Practice translation

Reflection
An image or shape as it would be seen in a mirror
Example of
reflection
Good way to practice

Rotation
A central point that stays fixed and everything else moves around that
point in a circle
