Question

Triangle CAT is transformed using a translation:Which could be coordinates of C'A'T' after the translation?

Answer 1

Say C(x1, y1), A(x2, y2) and T(x3, y3)

Then C' could be (x1, -y1) if we are translating across the x-axis, and you could take the (x, -y) of the others to show what C'A'T' is if translation is over the x-axis of symmetry.

Similarly we can use (-x, -y) for Origin, or (-x, y) for y-symmetry based translations.

Answer 2

do you have a diagram or answer choices...

but translation means to slide.... a set number of units in a direction.

so if C(0,0) a move of 5 right your give C' (5, 0)

Answer 3

So lets assign CAT points: Preferably the Origin (0, 0) , (1, 1), and (-1, -1) to start.

Answer 4

C(0, 0)
A(1, 1)
T(-1, -1)

And you choose the translation. Let's use a line of symmetry for aesthetic appeal if you like.

Answer 5

My bad. This does not make a triangle!!

Answer 6

Let's use
C(0, 0)
A(1, 1)
T(1, 0)
This makes a right triangle correct?

Answer 7

Triangle CAT is shown. C is at 0, 0, A is at negative 2, 1, T is at negative 1, 4.

Answer 8

Let's translate it using symmetry or movement. Which would you prefer? Oh ok I didn't know that. Here, let me draw that real quick.

Answer 9

these are the answer choices:
C=(0,0), A=(2,1), T=(1,4)

C=(2,0), A=(0,1), T=(1,4)

C=(0,0), A=(-1,-2), T=(-4,-1)

C=(-2,0), A=(-1,0), T=(-4,1)

Answer 10

This is what we have so far.

Answer 11

C=(0,0), A=(2,1), T=(1,4), let's try this one first.

Answer 12

ok
