Question

application. Line segment AB is a translation of line segment CD 6 units down. Drag line segment CD and try to move it onto line segment AB. Are line segments AB and CD the same? What does this mean about how a line segment changes when you translate it?

Answer 1

Solid transformation is a method that requires a change in the length of sides of a given shape or a change in its orientation. Thus the required answers are:

i. Yes, line segment AB is the same as line segment CD.

ii. This implies that translation does not affect the length of a given line, but there is a change in its location.

Solid transformation is a method that requires a change in the length of sides of a given shape or a change in its orientation. Some types of transformation are reflection, translation, dilation, and rotation.

• Dilation is a method that requires either increasing or decreasing the size of a given shape.
• Translation is a process that involves moving every point on the shape in the same direction, and the same unit.
• Reflection is a method that requires flipping a given shape over a given reference point or line.
• Rotation requires turning a given shape at an angle about a given reference point.

Thus in the given question, translation would not affect the length of line segment AB, thus line segment AB and CD are the same. Also, A translated line segment would have the same length as its object, but at another location.
