Question

Point B is located at (0, 2) and is translated to point B' with coordinates (1, -1), which translation did point B undergo? One unit right and three units down One unit right and one unit down Two units right and two units down Three units left and one unit up

Answer 1

One unit right and three units down

Explanation:

Transformation is the movement of a point from its initial location to a new location. Types of transformation are reflection, dilation, rotation or translation.

If a point X(x,y) is translated a units right and b units up, its new location is at X'(x + a, y + b) while if a point is translated a units left and b units down, its location is X'(x - a, y - b).

Since point B is located at (0, 2) and translates to B' with coordinates (1, -1), the translation is given as (x + 1, y - 3) that is 1 unit right and 3 unit down.
