Question

The coordinates of the vertices for square CDEF translated 3 units right and 4 units up if the vertices are C(-3, 1), D(1, 5), E(5, 1), and F(1, -3) are

C’(0, 5), D’(4, 6), E’(8, 6), and F’(4, -1)


Please select the best answer from the choices provided

TRUE
FALSE

Answer 1

False

Explanation:

We are given the coordinates of the vertices for square CDEF which are translated 3 units right and 4 units up if the vertices.

C(-3, 1) ---> C’(0, 5)

D(1, 5) ---> D’(4, 6)

E(5, 1) ---> E’(8, 6)

F(1, -3) ---> F’(4, -1)

Translation of 3 units right is addition is 3 units to x coordinate while 4 units up mean addition of 4 units in y coordinate.

So after translation, the vertices should be:

C(-3, 1) = (-3+3, 1+4) = C'(0, 5)

D(1, 5) = (1+3, 5+4) = D'(4, 9)

E(5, 1) = (5+3, 1+4) = E'(8, 5)

F(1, -3) = (1+3, -3+4) = F'(4, 1)

Therefore, it is False.

Answer 2

False

Explanation:

It is given that,

The coordinates of the vertices for square CDEF translated 3 units right and 4 units up if the vertices are C(-3, 1), D(1, 5), E(5, 1), and F(1, -3

To find the coordinates

3 units right means that x coordinate increased by 3 units

4 units up means that y coordinates increased by 4 units

Changes of coordinate

C(-3, 1) → C'(0, 5)

D(1, 5) → D'(4, 9)

E(5, 1) → E'(8, 5)

F(1, -3) → F'(4, 1)

The given coordinates are not correct.

Therefore the correct answer is False
