Module 5: Geometry
Determining which transformations were used to produce a new shape can be tricky. One possible strategy is to pick a particular point on the original shape and determine which transformations could take it to the corresponding point on the transformed shape. Then check to see if that set of transformations works for the other points as well.

- Answer question “Build Your Skills” question 3 from page 239 of your textbook. Answer
So far all of the transformations you have examined in this module have been two-dimensional. It is also possible to use transformations in three dimensions. In the next activity, you will predict the transformation used in a three-dimensional setting.
