Question

Writing a Translation Rule
A triangle has coordinates F(−2, 3), G(−4, 1), and H(−2, −2). The triangle is translated and its image has coordinates F’(0, 0), G’(−2, −2), and H’(0, −5).

What is the correct rule for the translation?
(x, y) Right-arrow (x + 2, y + 3)
(x, y) Right-arrow (x + 2, y – 3)
(x, y) Right-arrow(x – 2, y + 3)
(x, y) Right-arrow (x – 3, y+ 2)

Answer 1

Translate by vector (2, −3). So the rule is (x, y) → (x + 2, y − 3).
