GEOMETRY SLIDESHOW 2:. CONGRUENT Figures are the same SIZE and SHAPE. Congruent. NOT Congruent. NOT Congruent. not same size. not same shape. Which figures are congruent ?. Did you get the following pairs? A and G D and I E and J C and H
E N D
CONGRUENTFigures are the same SIZE and SHAPE Congruent NOT Congruent NOT Congruent not same size not same shape
Did you get the following pairs? • A and G • D and I • E and J • C and H • Remember: Shapes can be congruent even if one of them • has been rotated (as in A and G) or reflected (as in C and H).
SIMILAR Figures have the same shape, but not size. Similar Similar Similar
MOTIONS:There are 3 different ways to move a plane figure: *SLIDE*FLIP*TURN
SLIDE: TRANSLATION • Moves a figure in a straight direction
FLIP: REFLECTION • gives a mirror image of a figure
TURN: ROTATION • moves a figure about a point
A slideor translation… moves a figure in a straight direction L L
A flipor reflection… gives a figure its mirror image L L
A turnor rotation… moves a figure about a point L L
SYMMETRYA rectangle is a symmetric figure because it can be folded into 2 congruent halves that fit on top of each other.Each of your folds lie along a line of symmetry. The rectangle has two lines of symmetry.
