The coordinates of the vertices of a triangle are A(-1, 2), B(3, 1), and C(-3, -2). The coordinates of the vertices of its image are A'(3, -2), B(7, -3), and C'(1, -6). What transformations would result in this image? ΔABC was translated up 4 units and right 4 units. ΔABC was translated up 4 units and left 4 units. ΔABC was translated right 4 units and down 4 units. ΔABC was translated left 4 units and down 4 units.

OpenStudy (ben00):

just multiply.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

multiply what?

OpenStudy (kittiwitti1):

up/down: change y values. left/right: change x values. look at the changes between the respective points and tell me which one is the right answer? :-P

OpenStudy (kittiwitti1):

e.g. (-1,2) to (3,-2) what changes have there been in the respective x and y coordinates?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hmmmmhmmmm

OpenStudy (kittiwitti1):

*what changes in x = left/right shifts; left means negative and right means positive *what changes in y = up/down shifts; up means positive and down means negative

OpenStudy (kittiwitti1):

are you confused?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes very ....

OpenStudy (kittiwitti1):

e.g. (-1,2) to (3,-2) what changes do you see... x: -1 to 3... difference is ? y: 2 to -2... difference is ?

OpenStudy (kittiwitti1):

OKAY. the difference for x shows how many units it moved horizontally, the difference for y shows how many units it moved vertically|dw:1456887049328:dw|
