Geometric Transformations: Translations, Rotations, and Reflections
Quick fact
In a reflection, the mirror line acts as a perpendicular bisector for every segment connecting a point to its image, meaning each point moves directly across the line and lands at an equal distance on the other side.
Why this is interesting
Have you ever wondered how a shape can slide, spin, or flip on a piece of paper and still look exactly the same? These moves are the geometric dance of translations, rotations, and reflections.
