Sometimes more than one transformation is required to describe how an object changes. The order of a series of transformations is important. If the order is changed, it will often produce a different final image. To use successive transformations, complete the first transformation and use the image produced as a starting point for the next transformation.

 

Transformations can be completed in two dimensions and in three dimensions. Typically, two-dimensional transformations are easier to work with.
