Isometries / Rigid Motions • A transformation is an isometry (or rigid motion) iff it preserves distances and angles.
Definitions • Transformations definition of congruence: • Two figures are congruent iff there is an isometry in which one is the image of the other.
Definition • A glide reflection is the composite of a translation and a reflection in a line parallel to the direction of the translation. • In other words: Reflect, then translate, or vice versa.

Summary • Each isometry has an associated symmetry: • Reflection symmetry with respect to a line: • Figure coincides with its reflection image through the line • Rotation symmetry: • Figure coincides with its image when rotated less than 360° • n-fold symmetry, if the smallest such rotation is 360°⁄n • Translation symmetry: • Figure coincides with its translation image
Homework • Problem for final • Study guide • Any make-up portfolio work • Recommended review for Unit 5: • Proof problems: • Two reflections across parallel lines= translation perpendicular to the lines of reflection. • Prove that the 3 transformations are isometries. • Asgs #37-38.
Clean-up / Reminders • Pick up all trash / items. • Push in chairs (at front and back tables). • See you tomorrow!
