A = (0, 0)

Question

B = (6, 4)
C = (0, 9)

If the given triangle ABC
A
B
C
is translated 8 units down, what are the coordinates of point B′
B
′
?

Answer 1

To translate point \( B = (6, 4) \) down by 8 units, we need to subtract 8 from the y-coordinate of point B.

The original coordinates of point B are \( (6, 4) \).

After translating down by 8 units:

• The x-coordinate remains the same: \( 6 \)
• The y-coordinate is updated: \( 4 - 8 = -4 \)

So, the new coordinates of point \( B' \) after the translation are \( (6, -4) \).

Therefore, the coordinates of point \( B' \) are \( \boxed{(6, -4)} \).
