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−3) 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

I know abit of it, my only question would be what does the x+2,y-3 would mean

Answer 2

I think "transformed using the rule (x+2, y−3)" means the x value is increased by 2 and the y value is decreased by 3.

Answer 3

so since its on a coordinate plane what would that mean exactly?

Answer 4

A (−2, 2) becomes (-2+2, 2-3) which is A'. A' is (0, -1)

Answer 5

so wouldn't that mean since b is -2=2,4-3, would b=0,1

Answer 6

B (−2, 4) after transformation becomes B' (0, 1)

Answer 7

so point c would be 4,1?
