Question

The figure shows a pair of parallel line segments on a coordinate grid: the line segments are translated 2 units to the left to form J’K and M’N. Which statement describes J’K and M’N

Answer 1

Line segments J'K' and M'N' do not intersect and are the same distance apart as JK and MN.

Explanation:

If the line segments are translated 2 units to the left, then JK will start at (1, -1) and go to (5, -1), and MN will start at (1, -2) and to to (5, -2). So the line segments remain parallel and the same distance apart.

Answer 2
