Understanding Geometric Transformations

Geometric transformations are operations that alter the position, size, or orientation of shapes while maintaining their fundamental properties. They are classified into rigid transformations, which preserve size and shape, and non-rigid transformations, which preserve shape but not size. These transformations have practical applications in fields such as animation, robotics, and architecture.

RIGID NON-RIGID
• Preserves size and • Preserves shape
shape but not size
• Also called isometries
TYPES OF TRANSFORMATIONS
Rigid
• Translation - "slide"
• Reflection - "flip"
• Rotation - "turn"
Non - Rigid
• Dilation - "stretch or
shrink"
TRANSLATION
A Translation in math move a
shape left/right and up/down
Formula :

A(x,y)

Where,
(x,y) is pre image point

DILATION

Dilation is
enlargement/reduction of a
shape.
For Dilation there is Dilation with
scale factor and centre
enlargement.

SUMMARY
Geometric transformations are operations that change the
position, size, or orientation of shapes while preserving
their basic properties.
They play a crucial role in fields like computer
graphics, engineering, architecture, and art by
enabling us to manipulate and visualize shapes in
various ways.
Understanding and utilizing geometric
transformations empowers us to unlock the magic of
shape-changing possibilities.
Where else have you seen transformations in
your life?
