Explain the conservation of energy in terms of the energy transformation(s) that occur when you strike (light) a match.

The conservation of energy of energy states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed but can be transferred from one form to other. It also states that energy of bodies remain constant in a closed system.

While striking (light) a match, the mechanical energy is utilized is transformed  to thermal energy, this thermal energy then releases the chemical energy stored in match. The chemical energy at the ends transform to thermal energy which is visible as as light.

So, in this  the energy transformation that occurs remain constant.

positive reinforcement? ?

as we know our atmosphere or air have different levels. every level has other gasses, and every gas has another permeability. when the light comes from lower permeability to higher permeability, it changes its direction. so that means that when the light comes from the moon to the earth, it changes it's direction many more times. it basically means that the shape of the light part of the moon is changed on the earth.
