Yes, reflection and rotation are both transformations that can change the orientation of an object. Reflection is when an object is flipped over a line, while rotation is when an object is turned around a point.
Three types of transformations are translation, rotation, and reflection. These transformations can occur in a plane, on a grid, or in three-dimensional space. Translation moves an object without changing its orientation, rotation turns an object around a fixed point, and reflection flips an object across a line.
A rotation of 180 degrees is equivalent to a double reflection, as both operations flip the object over twice resulting in the same final orientation.
The angle of reflection is equal to the angle of incidence. In the "diagram" below the line pointing up is perpendicular to the horizontal line. The horizontal line is something like a mirror. | | ____________|_________ Now if a light wave was to hit the mirror where the two lines cross then the angle of incidence is the angle between the light wave and the perpendicular line. The angle of reflection will be the same angle only in the opposite rotation to the perpendicular
A reflection in the mirror is called a mirror image. Mirror images are the virtual images that we see when looking at our reflection in a mirror.
No, diffused reflection does not mean a failure of the laws of reflection. Diffused reflection occurs when light rays are scattered in different directions upon hitting a rough surface, but the angles of incidence and reflection still obey the law of reflection.
Size remains constant in reflection and rotation.

A glide reflection is where you reflect the shape and translate it. A glide rotation is where you rotate a shape and translate it. A glide translation doesn't exist.
yes
Yes, a reflection followed by a rotation can indeed be described as a single rotation under certain conditions. Specifically, if the line of reflection is positioned at an angle that bisects the angle of rotation, the combined transformation can be expressed as a single rotation about a point. This is often seen in geometric transformations where the resulting effect maintains the rotational symmetry. However, not all combinations of reflection and rotation will yield a single rotation; it depends on their relative orientations.
rotation, translation, and reflection
No. It would be a diagonal.
Transformation
Both are transformations.
