A linear map
is an isometric means following :
- T takes collinear points to collinear points, i.e. images of
straight lines are straight lines
- T preserves division-ratios
- T preserves distances
The following applet describes all the isometrics of
.
To use applet proceed as follows :
- Click at some points on the left panel to form a polygon
- Choose a transformation
- See the image in the right panel
