a transformation in the plane that preserves distance and angle measure.

a transformation that "slides" each point of a figure the same distance in the same direction.
a transformation that "flips" a figure over a mirror or reflection line.
a transformation where you "turn" a figure about a given point.
one shape becomes exactly like another when you move it in some way: turn, flip or slide.

a fixed point around which shapes move in a circular motion to a new position.

lines in the same plane that do not intersect.
