Lesson 4-2 Example 1 Identify Transformations Identify each transformation as a reflection, translation, dilation, or rotation. a. b.

c.

d.

a. b. c. d.

The figure has been increased in size. This is a dilation. The figure has been shifted horizontally to the right. This is a translation. The figure has been flipped over a line. This is a reflection. The figure has been turned around a point. This is a rotation.

Example 2 Reflection A pentagon has vertices A(-3, 1), B(-1, 1), C(0, 3), D(-2, 4), and E(-4, 3). a. Pentagon ABCDE is reflected over the y-axis. Find the coordinates of the vertices of the image. To reflect the figure over the y-axis, multiply each x-coordinate by 1. (x, y) A(-3, 1) B(-1, 1) C(0, 3) D(-2, 4) E(-4, 3) ! ! ! ! ! ! (-x, y) A(3, 1) B(1, 1) C (0, 3) D(2, 4) E(4, 3)

The coordinates of the vertices of the image are A(3, 1), B(1, 1), C (0, 3), D(2, 4), and E(4,3). b. Graph pentagon ABCDE and its image ABCDE. Graph each vertex of the pentagon ABCDE. Connect the points. Graph each vertex of the reflected image ABCDE. Connect the points.

Example 3 Translation Parallelogram QRST has vertices Q(-2, 1), R(1, 1), S(3, 3), and T(0, 3). a. Find the coordinates translated 1 unit to the right and 3 units up. To translate the parallelogram 1 unit to the right, add 1 to the x-coordinate of each vertex. To translate the parallelogram 3 units up, add 3 to the y-coordinate of each vertex. (x, y) ! (x + 1, y + 3) Q(-2, 1) ! Q(-2 + 1, 1 + 3) R(1, 1) ! R(1 + 1, 1 + 3) S(3, 3) ! S (3 + 1, 3 + 3) T(0, 3) ! T(0 + 1, 3 + 3) ! ! ! ! Q(-1, 4) R(2, 4) S (4, 6) T(1, 6)

The coordinates of the vertices of the image are Q(-1, 4), R(2, 4), S(4, 6), and T(1, 6). b. Graph parallelogram QRST and its image. The preimage is parallelogram QRST. The translated image is parallelogram QRST.

Example 4 Dilation A triangle has vertices X(1, 2), Y(3, 6), and Z(-2,3). a. Find the coordinates of the dilated triangle XYZ if the scale factor is 2. To dilate the figure multiply the coordinates of each vertex by 2. (x, y) ! (2x, 2y) X(1, 2) ! X(2 1, 2 2) ! X(2, 4) Y(3, 6) ! Y(2 3, 2 6) ! Y(6, 12) Z(-2, 3) ! Z (2 (-2), 2 3) ! Z (-4, 6) The coordinates of the vertices of the image are X(2, 4), Y(6, 12), and Z(-4, 6). b. Graph the preimage and its image. The preimage is the triangle XYZ. The image is the triangle XYZ. Notice that the image has sides that are two times the length of the sides of the original figure.

Example 5 Rotation Trapezoid ABCD has vertices A( 2, -1), B(-6, -1), C(-4, -5), and D(0, -5). a. Find the coordinates of the image of trapezoid ABCD after it is rotated 180 about the origin. To find the coordinates of the vertices after a 180 rotation, multiply both coordinates of each point by 1. (x, y) ! (-x, y) A(2, -1) ! A(-2, 1) B(-6, -1) ! B(6, 1) C(-4, -5) ! D(4, 5) D(0, -5) ! E(0, 5) b. Graph the preimage and its image. The image is trapezoid ABCD. The rotated image is trapezoid ABCD.
