Question

R(3, 2), S(5, -2), and T(6, 0) are the coordinates of a triangle's vertices. If the triangle is translated down 6 units, what are the coordinates of the image?

Answer 1

Answer:R'(3, -4), S'(5, -8), T'(6, -6)

Explanation:

Answer 2

6 units down → subtract 6 from y-coordinate of each point.

R(3, 2) → R'(3, 2 - 6) = (3, -4)

S(5, -2) → S'(5, -2 - 6) = (5, -8)

T(6, 0) → T'(6, 0 - 6) = (6, -6)
