Answer 1

To find the new vertices of the triangle after translating it 4 units to the right and 2 units down, we need to apply the translation to each of the original vertices.

The original vertices are:

1. (4, 3)
2. (8, 3)
3. (7, 5)

Translation Steps:

1. Translate right 4 units:
   • For point (x, y), the new x-coordinate will be \(x + 4\).
2. Translate down 2 units:
   • For point (x, y), the new y-coordinate will be \(y - 2\).

Calculate the new vertices:

1. For the vertex (4, 3):

   • New x: \(4 + 4 = 8\)
   • New y: \(3 - 2 = 1\)
   • Translated point: (8, 1)

2. For the vertex (8, 3):

   • New x: \(8 + 4 = 12\)
   • New y: \(3 - 2 = 1\)
   • Translated point: (12, 1)

3. For the vertex (7, 5):

   • New x: \(7 + 4 = 11\)
   • New y: \(5 - 2 = 3\)
   • Translated point: (11, 3)

Translated vertices:

So the translated vertices are:

• (8, 1)
• (12, 1)
• (11, 3)

The correct response is: (8, 1), (12, 1), and (11, 3).
