Question

A triangle on a coordinate plane is translated according to the rule T-3,5(X,Y) what is another way to write this ?

Answer 1

Given the translation rule as :

`T_(-3,5)(x,y)`

Solution

Another way of writing this is:

`(x,\text{ y) }\rightarrow\text{ (}x\text{ - 3, y + 5)}`

This means that the original coordinates (x,y) would be translated 3 units to the left and 5 units upwards to give the new coordinates.
