| translation | | a mirror image or result of a reflection |
| map | | Repeats itself along a straight line |
| composition | | when line of reflection is perpendicular bisector of segment BB' |
| tiling | | a transformation does this to a figure onto its image |
| linesymmetry | | dilation by a factor less than 1 |
| preimage | | transformation that uses circular motion |
| isometry | | when an image is congruent to its preimage |
| reflection | | when the image is enlarged or reduced |
| primenotation | | when a half turn maps a figure onto itself |
| scalefactor | | change in position, size or shape of a figure |
| image | | a tessellation |
| symmetry | | an isometry that maps a figure onto itself |
| dilation | | original figure in a transformation |
| transformation | | the result of a transformation |
| rotation | | a repeating pattern of figures that completely covers a plane without overlap or gaps |
| friezepattern | | more than one transformation at a time |
| reduction | | composition of translation followed by reflection |
| glidereflection | | used to identify image points |
| pointsymmetry | | describes size change from preimage to image |
| tessellation | | moves all points of a figure the same distance and direction |
