📋 Teacher Answer Key
1. y
2. Every point shifts by the same amount.
3. the figures are congruent
4. 12
5. Coordinates make it possible to describe the exact move and check what changes or stays the same for each point
6. More than one move can be used to map one figure onto another.
7. similar
8. The final statement connects the move to a mathematical conclusion such as congruence or similarity
