Question

Triangle cde can be mapped to triangle c'd'e' by a translation 7 units to the right and 9 units down followed by a rotation about the origin. What is the final position of point c'?

1) (-7, -9)
2) (7, 9)
3) (7, -9)
4) (-7, 9)

Answer 1

To find the final position of point c', we need to perform the given translation and rotation on point c. First, translate 7 units to the right and 9 units down. Then, rotate about the origin.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the final position of point c', we need to perform the given translation and rotation on point c.

First, we translate 7 units to the right and 9 units down. This means we add 7 to the x-coordinate of point c and subtract 9 from the y-coordinate of point c.

Next, we rotate the translated point about the origin. Since the rotation is not specified in the question, we cannot determine the final position of point c'. Therefore, none of the options provided are correct.
