To find the lowest vertex of the triangle after translating it 5 units up and 2 units to the right, we first need to determine the lowest vertex of the original triangle formed by the vertices:

1. (−4, 3)
2. (−1, −5)
3. (−2, 6)

Among these, the lowest vertex (with the smallest y-coordinate) is (−1, −5).

Next, we will translate this vertex by adding 5 to the y-coordinate and 2 to the x-coordinate:

1. Translating x-coordinate: -1 + 2 = 1
2. Translating y-coordinate: -5 + 5 = 0

So, after translation, the coordinates of the lowest vertex are (1, 0).

Thus, the correct answer is:

**(1,0)**
