Translations

Figures Q and R are congruent but they are shifted by a certain amount in both axes.

Let's select one point in Q and the corresponding point in R. For example, the point (6, -1) in Q corresponds to the point (0, 4) in R.

The difference between these points is:

(0, 4) - (6, -1) = (-6, 5)

This corresponds to a translation of 6 units to the left and 5 units up.
