Question

Quadrilateral ABCD is located at A (−2, 2), B (−2, 4), C (2, 4), and D (2, 2). The quadrilateral is then transformed using the rule (x−2, y+8) to form the image A'B'C'D'. What are the new coordinates of A', B', C', and D'? Describe what characteristics you would find if the corresponding vertices were connected with line segments.

Answer 1

@ganeshie8

Answer 2

Yes, apply the given rule for each vertex

Answer 3

given rule :
(x−2, y+8)

Answer 4

apply it for A (−2, 2) :
A' = (−2-2, 2+8)
= (-4, 10)

Answer 5

I have just subtracted 2 from x coordinate
and added 8 to the y coordinate

Answer 6

Is that clear ?

Answer 7

I'm still confused. I have know idea what to do here @ganeshie8

Answer 8

try to apply the given rule for the vertex B

Answer 9

B = (−2, 4)

subtract 2 from x coordinate,
add 8 to y coordinate,

wat do u get ?

Answer 10

(-4,12) ? sorry my computer is slow

Answer 11

Excellent !!

Answer 12

so thats the image of B :

B' = (-4, 12)

Answer 13

oops @ganeshie8

Answer 14

find the images of C and D also

Answer 15

how do I do that?

Answer 16

same way :

C = (2, 4)
subtract 2 from x coordinate,
add 8 to y coordinate,

wat do u get ?

Answer 17

(0, 12)

Answer 18

Yep, thats the image of C :

C' = (0, 12)

Answer 19

find the image of D similarly

Answer 20

D = (2, 2)

D' = ?

Answer 21

(0, 10)

Answer 22

Correct ! you're done

Answer 23

omg @ganeshie8 thank you so much! but what would I write for my final answer?

Answer 24

so what would you write for the characteristics?
