Question

HIJ has coordinates H(-4,3), I7(-2, 0), and J (-4,1). Graph the triangle and its

translation 3 units to the right and 2 units down. What are the coordinates of J'?

Answer 1

J'(-1; -1)

Explanation:

Look at the picture.

x - horizontal

y - vertical

left, right - horizontal

n units to the right: x + n

n units to the left: x - n

up, down - vertical

n units up: y + n

n units down: y - n

J(-4; 1)

3 units to the right: -4 + 3 = -1

2 units down: 1 - 2 = -1

J'(-1; -1)
