Question

The vertices of triangle WXY have coordinates W(3, 2), X(5, 5), and Y(7, 3). Triangle WXY was transformed to produce triangle WꞌXꞌYꞌ, with coordinates Wꞌ(−2, −1) and Yꞌ(2, 0).
What are the coordinates of vertex Xꞌ?

WILL FAN AND GIVE A MEDAL

Answer 1

is that supposed to ask what are the coordinates of vertex X'?

Answer 2

nevermind.... I see it now XD

Answer 3

do you have graph paper? this will be really easy if you do.

Answer 4

No sorry

Answer 5

okay... that's okay. do you know the distance formula?

Answer 6

no

Answer 7

sup

Answer 8

\[d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}\] you can choose either points W and W' or Y and Y' to find out the distance between the points.

Answer 9

ok

Answer 10

are you going to pick?

Answer 11

w

Answer 12

okay... so \[d=\sqrt{(-2-3)^2+(-1-2)^2}\] do you see how I got those?

Answer 13

yes

Answer 14

now solve what's in the parentheses first

Answer 15

_1

Answer 16

?.. you should get \[d=\sqrt{(-5)^2+(-3)^2}\]

Answer 17

that the answer ? @BloomLocke367

Answer 18

no... what's \(-5^2\) and \(-3^2\)?

Answer 19

look at point w and w dash
how has x and y changed ? 5 left -3 down

do the same to x

x (5-5) =0
y(5-3) 2

the new x is (0,2)

Answer 20

ohh I see i really suck at math
