====Translation==== [[Translation (geometry)|Translating]] a set of points of the plane, preserving the distances and directions between them, is equivalent to adding a fixed pair of numbers {{nowrap|(''a'', ''b'')}} to the Cartesian coordinates of every point in the set. That is, if the original coordinates of a point are {{nowrap|(''x'', ''y'')}}, after the translation they will be <math display=block>(x', y') = (x + a, y + b) .</math>
