In this case the answer is very simple. .

We must analyze the graph to find the solution.

Step 01:

Data

Triangle ABC

point A (1,1)

point B (4,0)

point C (3,3)

Step 02:

Traslation (x,y) ==> (x - 1, y - 2)

A' ( 1 - 1 , 1 - 2 )

A' ( 0 , - 1)

B' ( 4 - 1 , 0 - 2 )

B' ( 3 , -2 )

C' ( 3 - 1, 3 - 2 )

C' ( 2 , 1)

Step 03:

We must compare the calculated coordinates of the new points to verify if they coincide with those of the graph.

Triangle A'B'C'

Graph Calculated

A' (2, 3 ) ≠ A' ( 0 , - 1)

B' ( 6,2 ) ≠ B' ( 3 , -2 )

C' ( 4 , 5) ≠ C' ( 2 , 1)

The answer is:

False. Because the calculated coordinates are different from the coordinates of the graph.
