Dilations Advanced Geometry Similarity Lesson 1A
Transformation - the movement of a figure in a plane from its original position to a new position Rigid transformation does not change the size or shape of the figure congruence transformation isometry Translation Rotation Reflection
Dilation Definition – a similarity transformation in which a figure is enlarged or reduced using a scale factor not equal to zero Scale Factor Definition – the ratio of the lengths of two corresponding sides of two polygons or solids r
Enlargement Definition – a dilation in which Reduction Definition – a dilation in which
