OpenStudy (perl):

An isometric transformation is a transformation in which the distances between points of a figure are preserved. A translation or a rotation is such an example.

OpenStudy (perl):

an example of a transformation that is not isometric, would be dilating (shrinking or enlarging).

OpenStudy (perl):

because then the distances between points do change
