T ransformations Symmetry Dimension

◊ T

ransformations: one-to-one functions (domain, range: the whole plane)

◊ Isometries:

transformations that preserve distance

slide-8
SLIDE 8

T ransformations Symmetry Dimension

Fundamental Theorem of Isometries: every isometry of the plane is a reflection, a rotation, a translation, or a glide reflection.

slide-9
SLIDE 9

T ransformations Symmetry Dimension

Computing transformations

using complex numbers:

◊ T

ranslation: add a+bi

◊ Rotation around the origin:

multiply by cos θ + i sin θ

◊ Rotation around (a,b): subtract a+bi,

rotate around the origin, add a+bi
