Question

Graph the image of square BCDE after a translation 6 units up.

Answer 1

Translation of 6 units up means we are to add 6 units to the y-coordinate of each vertex

B(-6, 1), C(-4, 1), D(-4, 3), E(-6, 3)

B(-6, 1) ⇒ B'(-6, 1+6) ⇒ B'(-6, 7)

C(-4, 1) ⇒ C'(-4, 1+6) ⇒ C'(-4, 7)

D(-4, 3) ⇒ D'(-4, 3+6) ⇒ D'(-4, 9)
