3.4 primitive transformations preserve the ratio of any two directed distances,
and also of any two undirected distances, on the same line or on parallel lines.
In particular, they send equal distances into equal distances and preserve ratio of
division, thus sending midpoints into midpoints.

strain by analogy with the behavior of the cross section of elastic objects when
the latter are subjected to certain forces. More generally, a one-dimensional
strain is defined as follows. Let g be any line, and k any positive constant.
Each point of g goes into itself, and any other point P of the plane goes
into the point P on the same side of g as P such that line PP is
perpendicular to g , and OP =k OP , where O is the intersection of g
and line PP .)
11. Prove that the primitive transformation T given by (1) preserves distance
in just one direction when c=0 , and in just two direction when c 0 . More
generally, show that distance is multiplied by the same constant in at most two
directions. (As in 3, assume that T is not a similarity.)

It is now follows that the image of an angle is an angle, the image of a triangle
is a triangle (vertices going into vertices, sides into sides, interior into interior),
and more generally, that an n -sided polygon always goes into an n -sided
polygon. Also, on using 3.2 and 3.4 we see that two segments which are on the
same line or on parallel lines, and which agree in length and direction, must go
into two segments which posses these same properties. In other words, the
image of a pair of equal vectors is a pair of equal vector.
4.1 Primitive transformations preserve the between-relation, and hence the
properties of being a segment, ray, angle, half-plane, n-sided polygon, or pair of
equal vectors.
