Question

Triangle ABC is to be translated right 3 units, down 5 units. What are the vertices of the translated triangle? A. A'(0, 9), B'(1, 3), and C'(7, 6) B. A'(0, –1), B'(1, –7), and C'(7, –4) C. A'(–6, –1), B'(–5, –7), and C'(1, –4) D. A'(–6, 9), B'(–5, 3), and C'(1, 6)

Answer 1

It is A. Because the point a would be on the -1 and the b would be on the -7 and the c would be on the -4

Answer 2

The vertices of the translated triangle are:

C. A'(–6, –1), B'(–5, –7), and C'(1, –4)

How to find the coordinates after translation?

The original coordinates of the triangle are:

A(-3, 4)

B(-2, -2)

C(4, 1)

A translation to the right by 3 units and down by 5 units gives:

A'(-3 - 3, 4 - 5)

B'(-2 - 3, -2 - 5)

C'(4 - 3, 1 - 5)

= A'(-6, -1)

B'(-5, -7)

C'(1, -4)
