Question

Translate pre-image coordinates left 6 units and down 15 units

A(8, 17)
B(8, 11)
C(2, 11) ​

Answer 1

The answer to your question is:

a) (2, 2)

b) (2, -4)

c) (-4 , -4)

Explanation:

Data

A (8, 17)

B (8, 11)

C (2, 11)

Process

A ( 8 -6, 17 - 15) = ( 2, 2)

B ( 8 - 6 , 11 - 15) = (2, -4)

C ( 2 - 6, 11 - 15) = ( -4, -4)

Answer 2

The translated image coordinates would be ;

• A'(2, 2)
• B'(-2, -4)
• C'(-4, -4)

Using the pre-image coordinates ;

• A(8, 17)
• B(8, 11)
• C(2, 11)

Translation values are ;

• Left = 6 units
• Down = 15 units

For left and downward Translation, we subtract from the values of the pre-image coordinates.

Now we have ;

A(8-6, 17-15) = A'(2, 2)

B(8-6, 11-15) = B'(-2, -4)

C(2-6, 11-15) = C'(-4, -4)
