1 unit
2 units
3 units
5 units

Answer 1

the answer would be C/ unit 3 because the segment of AB has a length of 3

Answer 2

The correct option is C.

Explanation:

It is given that line segment AB has a length of 3 units. It is translated 2 units to the right on a coordinate plane to obtain line segment A'B'.

Translation is a rigid transformation. It means the shape and size of preimage and image are same. In other words we can say that the preimage and image are congruent.

Corresponding sides of congruent figures are congruent.

The length of A'B' is 3 units. Therefore the correct option is C.
