Answer 1

Given:

The rule of translation is:

`(x+3,y-2)`

The trapezoid ABCD on the graph.

To find:

The coordinates of the point C'.

Solution:

From the given graph, it is clear that the coordinates of point C are (-2,4).

The rule of translation is:

`(x,y)\to (x+3,y-2)`

Using this rule of translation, we get

`C(-2,4)\to C'(-2+3,4-2)`

`C(-2,4)\to C'(1,2)`

Therefore, the coordinates of the point C' are (1,2).
