Math Clip Art--Similarity with Transformations--10

Topic

Geometry Concepts

Description

This image shows a kite reflected across a horizontal line, followed by a dilation. Reflection creates a mirror image of the original figure across a line of reflection. Dilation changes the size of the original figure but keeps it proportional.

This transformation demonstrates how a figure can be flipped over a line to create its mirror image. The resulting kite is similar to the original but inverted vertically.

Teacher's Script: "Examine how the kite is reflected across the horizontal line and dilated. What properties of the kite remain unchanged? How does the orientation of the kite change after reflection? Can you identify the line of reflection and describe its relationship to the original and reflected kites?"
