  2. Translation of axes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Translation_of_axes

    In mathematics, a translation of axes in two dimensions is a mapping from an xy-Cartesian coordinate system to an x'y'-Cartesian coordinate system in which the x' axis is parallel to the x axis and k units away, and the y' axis is parallel to the y axis and h units away.

  3. Translation (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Translation_(geometry)

    In Euclidean geometry, a translation is a geometric transformation that moves every point of a figure, shape or space by the same distance in a given direction. A translation can also be interpreted as the addition of a constant vector to every point, or as shifting the origin of the coordinate system. In a Euclidean space, any translation is ...

    3D visualization of a sphere and a rotation about an Euler axis (^) by an angle of In 3-dimensional space, according to Euler's rotation theorem, any rotation or sequence of rotations of a rigid body or coordinate system about a fixed point is equivalent to a single rotation by a given angle about a fixed axis (called the Euler axis) that runs through the fixed point.

    "minecraft" and similar terms adds a grass block button that when pressed shows Steve’s hand in the corner. Clicking on parts of the screen has the hand mine away that section, revealing a small Minecraft area. Steve can continue mining blocks to upgrade his pickaxe. [39] [40]

    In mathematics, a rotation of axes in two dimensions is a mapping from an xy-Cartesian coordinate system to an x′y′-Cartesian coordinate system in which the origin is kept fixed and the x′ and y′ axes are obtained by rotating the x and y axes counterclockwise through an angle .

  7. Active and passive transformation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Active_and_passive...

    In the active transformation (left), a point P is transformed to point P ′ by rotating clockwise by angle θ about the origin of a fixed coordinate system. In the passive transformation (right), point P stays fixed, while the coordinate system rotates counterclockwise by an angle θ about its origin.

    Translation of axes: The Parabola; Translation of Axes; I am not familiar with the process of licensing images from the outside, nor do I have the tools to generate a nice-looking diagram myself. Perhaps someone else can supply a good diagram. — Anita5192 19:02, 29 July 2015 (UTC)

    A reflection against an axis followed by a reflection against a second axis parallel to the first one results in a total motion that is a translation. A reflection against an axis followed by a reflection against a second axis not parallel to the first one results in a total motion that is a rotation around the point of intersection of the axes.
