Question

Practice identifying translations on a plane.
On a coordinate plane, triangle A B C is shifted 6 units to the right to form triangle A prime B prime C prime.

The translation shown in the graph moves the figure to the right. What kind of translation is shown?

Answer 1

A horizontal translation 6 units to the right — i.e., a translation by the vector <6, 0>.
Coordinate rule: (x, y) → (x + 6, y).
