Question

Triangle XYZ is located at X (-2, 1), Y (-4, -3), and Z (0, -2). The triangle is then transformed using the rule (x-1, y+3) to form the image X'Y'Z'. What are the new coordinates of X', Y', and Z'? Describe what characteristics you would find if the corresponding vertices were connected with line segments.

Answer 1

Answer 2

@iGreen

Answer 3

Subtract the x-values by 1, and add the y-values by 3.

Answer 4

X = (-2, 1) Y = (-4, -3) Z = (0, -2)

X' = (-2 - 1, 1 + 3) Y' = (-4 - 1, -3 + 3) Z' = (0 - 1, -2 + 3)

Can you simplify those? @coolaidpower

Answer 5

X'=(-1, 4) Y'= ( -5, -6) Z' ( 1, 1) is that it? @iGreen

Answer 6

-2 - 1 isn't -1
-3 + 3 isn't -6
0 - 1 isn't 1

Answer 7

ok

Answer 8

@iGreen

Answer 9

X'= (-3, 4) Y'=(-5, 0) Z'=(-1,1 ? @iGreen

Answer 10

Yep, that's your answer!

Answer 12

lol @iGreen i know xD

Answer 13

Okay, lol.

Answer 14

thank you btw @iGreen

Answer 15

Oh real quick @iGreen it says "Describe what characteristics you would find if the corresponding vertices were connected with line segments". what should i do here?

Answer 16

Oh, it's asking what you would find if you connected X with X', Y with Y', and Z with Z'.

Hold on let me graph it for you.

Answer 17

ok

Answer 18

Just say when you connect them the lines will be parallel.

I g2g, bye

Answer 19

ok thank you @iGreen
