Question

PO 19. Trapezoid ABCD is shown on the coordinate plan. Suppose the trapezoid is translated 3 units right and 2 units up. Which of the following are vertices of the translated figure? Select all that apply. A'(-2,4) B'(1,-1) C(0,7) D'(0,6) B

Answer 1

First, let's find the coordinates of the trapezoid

A(-5, 2)

B(-1, 2)

C( -2, 4)

D(-3, 4)

3 units right means we will add 3 to the x-axis

2 units up implies we are adding 2 to the y-axis

A(-5, 2) ⇒ A'(-2, 4)

B(-1, 2) ⇒ B'( 2, 4)

C(-2, 4) ⇒ C'( 1, 6)

D(-3, 4) ⇒ D' (0, 6)

Hence, from the options given, A' and D' are vertices of the translated figure
