Slide, flip, turn, stretch, shrink.

You have explored the world of translations and symmetry. You studied what happens when you translate (slide), reflect (flip), and rotate (turn) polygons and figures as well as what happens when they dilate (stretch or shrink). These skills are useful in your everyday life as well as in many professions, such as architecture, graphic design, and carpentry.
