Question

Right triangle XYZ, has vertex angles at the coordinates, X(0, 0), Y(-3, 0) and Z(-3, 4) . Its image, triangle X'Y'Z' has vertex angles at the coordinates, X'(3, -5), Y'(0, -5), and Z'(0, -1). Describe the horizontal and vertical translations that map triangle XYZ onto its image, triangle X'Y'Z'.

Answer 1

you can just compare one point (let's say X(0,0) to its image X'(3,-5))

any ideas how you would go from (0,0) to (3,-5)? try to consider the x coordinates and y coordinates separately
