Question

Write the coordinates of the vertices after a translation 7 units left and 4 units down. P (-1, -6) -> P' (____,____)Q (6, -6) -> Q' (____,___)R (2, 0) -> R' (___,___)

Answer 1

Explanation:

To translate the figure 8 units left and 5 units down means we need to use a translation rule, which in this case is represented by the following:

`(x,y)=(x-8,y-5)`

Then for the rectangle PQRS, its vertices would be:

`\begin{gathered} S(1,8)\rightarrow S^(\prime)(-7,3) \\ R(5,8)\rightarrow R^(\prime)(-3,3) \\ P(1,-1)\rightarrow P^(\prime)(-7,-6) \\ Q(5,-1)\rightarrow Q^(\prime)(-3,-6) \end{gathered}`
