A translation maps
1.) A line
points P and Q to
segment is
point P' and Q' so
part of a line;
that the following
it consists of
properties are true:
two endpoints
PP' = QQ'
and all points
PP' QQ'
between them.
2.) An angle
is formed by
two rays with
a common
endpoint.

Ex) ABC has been translated left 2 and up 3units.

3.) A circle is
the set of all
points in a
plane that are
a fixed distant
from a given
point, called
the center; the
fixed distance
is the radius.
4.) Parallel
lines are lines
in the same
plane that do
not intersect.

6.) Compare the distance from A to A' to the distance
from B to B' to the distance from C to C'

lines are two
lines that
intersect to
form right
angles.
