Question

Which translation vectors could have been used for the pair of figures?

Answer 1

Given the positions of the shapes, we can conlcude that the vertex can be described by these arrows:

B - upwards to the left

C - downwards to the right

E - upwards

F - downwards

Answer 2

The translation vectors are shown in below figure.

Explanation:

In a translation of figures, if translation is described using vectors, then the vector that represents the distance and direction between preimage and image, is known as translation vectors.

In the given figure image and preimage are not mentioned and we need to find the translation vectors.

Case 1: Let (1) is preimage and (2) is image.

Connect any two corresponding vertices of preimage and image by using vectors.

Case 2: Let (2) is preimage and (1) is image.

Connect any two corresponding vertices of preimage and image by using vectors.

Therefore the translation vectors are shown in below figure.

If the oppositions are in the following way,

1 2

3 4

5 6

Then the correct options are 3 and 5.
