Question

Write the coordinates of the vertices after a translation 6 units left and 6 units down.

Answer 1

L(0, 2) --> L'(-6, -4)

M(0, 6) --> M'(-6, 0)

N(10, 5) --> N'(4, -1)

Explanation:

To find the coordinates after translation, we notice that we are moving 6 to the left which is the same as subtracting 6 from the x coordinate. We are also moving 6 down, which is the same as subtracting 6 from the y coordinate. We can apply this to all points:

L(0, 2) --> L'(-6, -4)

M(0, 6) --> M'(-6, 0)

N(10, 5) --> N'(4, -1)
