Question

Given Rhombus KLMN with vertices K(-3,2), L(1,4), M(-1, 0), and N(-5, 2), find the coordinates of K' after the transformation (x, y) → (x, y - 5).

a. A. K'(-3, -3)
b. B. K'(-3, -5)
c. C. K'(-3, 0)
d. D. K'(-3, -7)

Answer 1

After applying the given transformation to the vertex K of Rhombus KLMN, the new coordinates of K' are (-3, -3).

Step-by-step explanation:

The question asks for the coordinates of the vertex K after applying the transformation (x, y) → (x, y - 5) to Rhombus KLMN. To find the coordinates of K', we need to subtract 5 from the y-coordinate of K while the x-coordinate remains unchanged.

Original coordinates of K: (-3, 2)
Applying the transformation: K' = (-3, 2 - 5) = (-3, -3)

Therefore, the coordinates of K' after the transformation are (-3, -3).
