Solution: The correct option is option A, it means the graph of square was translated 2 units down.
Step-by-step explanation:
The translation of shape is the process of shifting the shape from one place to another with any other change. There are two types of shifting vertical and horizontal.
If the shape shifted vertically then it will effect only the y-coordinates of the figure. If the shape is shifted
units up then all the y-coordinates of shape increased by
units and if the shape is shifted
units down then all the y-coordinates of shape decreased by
units .
If the shape shifted horizontally then it will effect only the x-coordinates of the figure. If the shape is shifted
units to the right then all the x-coordinates of shape increased by
units and if the shape is shifted
units to the left then all the x-coordinates of shape decreased by
units .
It is given that the square formed by the points A(−3, −4) , B(−3, 5) , C(6, 5) , and D(6,-4).
After translation the vertices of the square are A′(−3, −6) , B′(−3, 3) , C′(6, 3) and D′(6, −6) .
From the above information it is noticed that there is no change in the x-coordinates but y-coordinate is decreased by 2 units. Therefore vertices A′(−3, −6) , B′(−3, 3) , C′(6, 3) and D′(6, −6) .
