  1. 1. A shape is translated by the vector (−35)\begin{pmatrix} -3 \\\\ 5 \end{pmatrix}. What happens to the point (2,1)(2,1)?

    • A. It moves to (−1,6)(-1,6)
    • B. It moves to (5,−4)(5,-4)
    • C. It moves to (−1,−4)(-1,-4)
    • D. It moves to (1,6)(1,6)
  2. 2. Which single piece of extra information, together with the word 'reflection', fully describes a reflection?

    • A. The scale factor
    • B. The centre of reflection
    • C. The equation of the mirror line
    • D. The angle of turn
  3. 3. A shape is enlarged by scale factor 13\tfrac{1}{3} from a centre point. What happens to the shape?

    • A. It gets three times bigger and flips
    • B. It gets three times smaller, same orientation
    • C. It stays the same size but moves
    • D. It gets three times bigger, same orientation
  4. 4. Point (4,−2)(4,-2) is rotated 90°90° clockwise about the origin. What is the image?

    • A. (−2,−4)(-2,-4)
    • B. (2,4)(2,4)
    • C. (−2,4)(-2,4)
    • D. (2,−4)(2,-4)
  5. 5. A triangle is enlarged by scale factor −2-2 from centre (0,0)(0,0). Vertex AA is at (1,3)(1,3). Where is the image A′A', and how does the image compare to the object?

    • A. A′(2,6)A'(2,6); same orientation, twice the size
    • B. A′(−2,−6)A'(-2,-6); inverted through the centre, twice the size
    • C. A′(−1,−3)A'(-1,-3); same size, reflected
    • D. A′(2,6)A'(2,6); inverted, same size
