Question

The vertices of a triangle are A(0,3) B(-2,-4) and C(1,5) find the new vertices

Use the rule (x,y) (x-2,y+4) to translate each vertex.

Answer 1

see explanation

Explanation:

Using the translation rule (x, y ) → (x - 2, y + 4 )

Subtract 2 from the original x- coordinate and add 4 to the original y- coordinate, thus

A(0, 3 ) → A'(0 - 2, 3 + 4 ) → A'(- 2, 7 )

B(- 2, - 4 ) → B'(- 2 - 2, - 4 + 4 ) → B'(- 4, 0 )

C(1, 5 ) → C'(1 - 2, 5 + 4 ) → C'(- 1, 9 )
