Translation A movement (slide) of a figure along a straight line
Rotation A transformation in which the figure is turned around a point
Reflection A transformation of a figure that flips the figure across a line
Line of Reflection A line that a figure is flipped across to create a mirror image of the original figure
Line Symmetry One-half of a figure is a mirror-image of the other half
Line of Symmetry The imaginary "mirror" in line symmetry
Asymmetry Not identical on either side of a central line; not symmetrical
Rotational Symmetry A figure has rotational symmetry if it can be rotated less than 360 degrees around a central point and coincide with the original figure

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
