This is a comprehensive pack of notes about grade 9 transformations. It teaches about translations, reflections, enlargements, and reductions. It contains notes, examples and particularly exercises with answers.

Translation, reflection and rotation are all known as rigid transformations since the

transformation (the image is congruent to the original figure)
Dilation - enlargemernt or reduction of a shape from a fixed point. We use the
origin.
