Question

which signaled transformation can map figure PQRS onto P'Q'R'S? p(2,2) q(5,2) r(5,6) s(2,6)P(-6,2)Q(-3,2)R(-3,6)S(-6,6) A. Translation of 8 units down B. translation of 8 units upC. translation of 8 units to the rightD. translation of 8 units to the left

Answer 1

You have the following PQRS points:

P(2,2) Q(5,2) R(5,6) S(2,6)

which are transformed to the following P'Q'R'S' points:

P(-6,2)Q(-3,2)R(-3,6)S(-6,6)

You can notice that the y coordinate does not change in the transformation.

Furthermore, for the x coordinate, you can notice that each number is decreased in 8 units.

For example, for x coordintate of point P:

2 - 8 = - 6 (which is the coordinate of thenew point P')

Hence, the answer is:

A. Translation of 8 units down
