# 9.3 Transformations  (Page 3/3)

 Page 3 / 3

What can you deduce about the co-ordinates of points that are reflected about the line $y=x$ ?

The $x$ and $y$ co-ordinates of points that are reflected on the line $y=x$ are swapped around, or interchanged. This means that the $x$ co-ordinate of the original point becomes the $y$ co-ordinate of the reflected point and the $y$ co-ordinate of the original point becomes the $x$ co-ordinate of the reflected point.

The $x$ and $y$ co-ordinates of points that are reflected on the line $y=x$ are interchanged.

Find the co-ordinates of the reflection of the point R, if R is reflected on the line $y=x$ . The co-ordinates of R are (-5;5).

1. We are given the point R with co-ordinates (-5;5) and need to find the co-ordinates of the point if it is reflected on the line $y=x$ .

2. The $x$ co-ordinate of the reflected point is the $y$ co-ordinate of the original point. Therefore, $x$ =5.

The $y$ co-ordinate of the reflected point is the $x$ co-ordinate of the original point. Therefore, $y$ =-5.

3. The co-ordinates of the reflected point are (5;-5).

Rules of Translation

A quick way to write a translation is to use a 'rule of translation'. For example $\left(x;y\right)\to \left(x+a;y+b\right)$ means translate point (x;y) by moving a units horizontally and b units vertically.

So if we translate (1;2) by the rule $\left(x;y\right)\to \left(x+3;y-1\right)$ it becomes (4;1). We have moved 3 units right and 1 unit down.

Translating a Region

To translate a region, we translate each point in the region.

Example

Region A has been translated to region B by the rule: $\left(x;y\right)\to \left(x+4;y+2\right)$

## Discussion : rules of transformations

Work with a friend and decide which item from column 1 matches each description in column 2.

 Column 1 Column 2 1. $\left(x;y\right)\to \left(x;y-3\right)$ A. a reflection on x-y line 2. $\left(x;y\right)\to \left(x-3;y\right)$ B. a reflection on the x axis 3. $\left(x;y\right)\to \left(x;-y\right)$ C. a shift of 3 units left 4. $\left(x;y\right)\to \left(-x;y\right)$ D. a shift of 3 units down 5. $\left(x;y\right)\to \left(y;x\right)$ E. a reflection on the y-axis

## Transformations

1. Describe the translations in each of the following using the rule (x;y) $\to$ (...;...)
1. From A to B
2. From C to J
3. From F to H
4. From I to J
5. From K to L
6. From J to E
7. From G to H
2. A is the point (4;1). Plot each of the following points under the given transformations. Give the co-ordinates of the points you have plotted.
1. B is the reflection of A in the x-axis.
2. C is the reflection of A in the y-axis.
3. D is the reflection of B in the line x=0.
4. E is the reflection of C is the line y=0.
5. F is the reflection of A in the line y= x
3. In the diagram, B, C and D are images of polygon A. In each case, the transformation that has been applied to obtain the image involves a reflection and a translation of A. Write down the letter of each image and describe the transformation applied to A in order to obtain the image.

## Investigation : calculation of volume, surface area and scale factors of objects

1. Look around the house or school and find a can or a tin of any kind (e.g. beans, soup, cooldrink, paint etc.)
2. Measure the height of the tin and the diameter of its top or bottom.
3. Write down the values you measured on the diagram below:
4. Using your measurements, calculate the following (in cm ${}^{2}$ , rounded off to 2 decimal places):
1. the area of the side of the tin (i.e. the rectangle)
2. the area of the top and bottom of the tin (i.e. the circles)
3. the total surface area of the tin
5. If the tin metal costs 0,17 cents/cm ${}^{2}$ , how much does it cost to make the tin?
6. Find the volume of your tin (in cm ${}^{3}$ , rounded off to 2 decimal places).
7. What is the volume of the tin given on its label?
8. Compare the volume you calculated with the value given on the label. How much air is contained in the tin when it contains the product (i.e. cooldrink, soup etc.)
9. Why do you think space is left for air in the tin?
10. If you wanted to double the volume of the tin, but keep the radius the same, by how much would you need to increase the height?
11. If the height of the tin is kept the same, but now the radius is doubled, by what scale factor will the:
1. area of the side surface of the tin increase?
2. area of the bottom/top of the tin increase?

## Summary

• The properties of kites, rhombuses, parallelograms, squares, rectangles and trapeziums was covered. These figures are all known as quadrilaterals
• You should know the formulae for surface area of rectangular and triangular prisms as well as cylinders
• The volume of a right prism is calculated by multiplying the area of the base by the height. So, for a square prism of side length $a$ and height $h$ the volume is $a×a×h={a}^{2}h$ .
• Two polygons are similar if:
• their corresponding angles are equal
• the ratios of corresponding sides are equal
. All squares are similar

can someone help me with some logarithmic and exponential equations.
20/(×-6^2)
Salomon
okay, so you have 6 raised to the power of 2. what is that part of your answer
I don't understand what the A with approx sign and the boxed x mean
it think it's written 20/(X-6)^2 so it's 20 divided by X-6 squared
Salomon
I'm not sure why it wrote it the other way
Salomon
I got X =-6
Salomon
ok. so take the square root of both sides, now you have plus or minus the square root of 20= x-6
oops. ignore that.
so you not have an equal sign anywhere in the original equation?

algebra 2 Inequalities:If equation 2 = 0 it is an open set?
or infinite solutions?

The answer is neither. The function, 2 = 0 cannot exist. Hence, the function is undefined.

At high concentrations (>0.01 M), the relation between absorptivity coefficient and absorbance is no longer linear. This is due to the electrostatic interactions between the quantum dots in close proximity. If the concentration of the solution is high, another effect that is seen is the scattering of light from the large number of quantum dots. This assumption only works at low concentrations of the analyte. Presence of stray light.
the Beer law works very well for dilute solutions but fails for very high concentrations. why?
how did you get the value of 2000N.What calculations are needed to arrive at it
