Open the line segment translation application. Line segment AB is a translation of line segment CD 6 units down. Drag line segment CD and try to move it onto line segment AB. Are line segments AB and CD the same? What does this mean about how a line segment changes when you translate it?

Explanation:

Line segment CD can be placed directly on top of line segment AB. The translated segment has the same length and orientation as the original.
