Question

When a figure is translated on a coordinate grid what conclusion can you draw from the preimage and image ?



A. The orientation changes, and angles remain congruent
B. The shape changes, and the sides lengths remain congruent
C. The position changes, in the angles remain congruent
D. Besides changes, and the sides remain congruent

Answer 1

the translation of the image is just moving the whole image as one entity

Answer 2

Possible changes in a simple geometric transformation:
1. position of points
2. angle between adjacent sides
3. orientation of sides
4. lengths of sides

In a translation, everything is preserved exception position of points.
