Answer:

An isometry is a distance preserving map from some space itself: a rigid motion. For example, f(x)=x+5 is an isometry of the real line; the whole line is shifted by 5, and distances between points remain unchanged. Asymmetry of a figure in some space is an isometry of that space which maps the figure to itself

Explanation:

hope this helps have a good night :) ❤

Answer:

An isometry is a distance preserving map from some space it itself.

A symmetry is one shape becomes exactly like another when you move it in some way: turn, flip or slide.
