A shape can be transformed in a number of ways: Yot ... or slide it (translation) so flip it (reflection) .» turn it (rotation) @ Ina translation: > The first move Is always left or right (horizontal). > The second move is always up or down (vertical). The translation of this shape is: y 5 squares to the left and 3 squares up. ( cy This can be written: 3 up ° The coordinates of the vertices of triangle CDE are (1,9), (4,4), (1,3).

Some congruent shapes tessellate very well. VEEN 2A) 7) This shape repeats itself in this pattern. Notice there are no gaps or overlaps. This is a tessellation.
