Question

Graph the image of rectangle PQRS after a translation 4 units up.

Answer 1

Let's begin by listing out the information given to us:

P(-2, -8), Q(3, -8), R(3, 0), S(-2, 0)

A translation of 4 units up means we will add 4 to the y-coordinate of each vertex. We have:

P'(-2, -4), Q'(3, -4), R'(3, 4), S'(-2, 4)

We will proceed to plot a graph of this
