Question

The coordinate grid below shows triangle ABC and its image after translation, triangle A'B'C'.

Triangles ABC and A prime B prime C prime are shown. A is at negative 6, 10. B is at negative 7, 7. C is at negative 4, 6. A prime is at 2, 7. B prime is at 1, 4. C prime is at 4, 3.

Which rule represents the translation seen?

(x, y) → (x−8, y+3)

(x, y) → (x+8, y−3)

(x, y) → (x−3, y+8)

(x, y) → (x+3, y−8)

Answer 1

A(-6, 10) ---> A'(2, 7)
so wats happening here ?

Answer 2

is that by translation?

Answer 3

its maybe the first one

Answer 4

Yes,

-6 is becoming 2.
-6+? = 2

Answer 5

its not the first one,

-6+8 = 2

so x--> x+8

Answer 6

similarly find how y is moving

Answer 7

10 is becoming 7

10-? = 7

10-3 = 7

so y-->y-3

Answer 8

(x , y) ---> (x+8, y-3)

Answer 9

see if that makes some sense

Answer 10

so its the second !

Answer 11

yup

Answer 12

translations are just a matter of simple additions/subtractions

Answer 13

wow you really know your geometry! :D un like me :P

Answer 14

lol that looks like a compliment ;)

Answer 15

Basically we need to see what number is added or subtracted from each piece of the original points, to get the final points. We really only need to look at one pair of points and see what happens... for example we could compare A and A'or B and B'.

Answer 16

But so far what ganeshie said; is absolutely correct!

Answer 17

thank you! i really appreciate you both helping me :D <3

Answer 18

No worries [:
