Question

Translations

ΔABC is translated 6 units up and 3 units left to create ΔA′B′C′. If vertex A is located at (-1, 2), what are the coordinates of A′ ?


(5, -1)


(-4. 8)


(2, -4)


(-7, -1)

Answer 1

Hello! Sorry for the late reply :-/

if a triangle is translated a certain amount, that means that every point in and on the triangle would also be moved that amount :)

this means that if the triangle was moved
3 to the left
and
6 up
--> (x - 3, y + 6)

then the point if the point (-1, 2) was moved the same amount
(-1 - 3 , 2 + 6)
and simplify to get your new point :)

I hope this was able to help you!

@jigglypuff314 it's okay my OS JUST loaded after posting that :( but I got (-4, 8) so (-1,2)
