Translations

Front

What is the rule for translating a point 5 units up and 7 units to the right?

Back

(x, y) --> (x + 7, y + 5)

Front

How do you represent a translation of a figure 5 units down algebraically?

Back

(x, y) --> (x, y - 5)

Front

How do you translate triangle ABC to triangle A'B'C' if the translation is (x - 2, y + 9)?

Back

Translate triangle ABC by moving it 2 units left and 9 units up.

Front

When translating a figure up or down on a coordinate plane, which coordinate is affected?

Back

The y-coordinate.

Front

How is trapezoid ABCD translated to trapezoid A'B'C'D' if it is translated 8 units down and 5 units to the right?

Back

The translation rule is (x, y) --> (x + 5, y - 8).

Front

What is the general rule for translating a point (x, y) 3 units left and 4 units up?

Back

(x, y) --> (x - 3, y + 4)

Front

If a point is translated 10 units to the right, how is this represented?

Back

(x, y) --> (x + 10, y)

Front

What happens to the coordinates of a point when it is translated 6 units down?

Back

The y-coordinate decreases by 6.

Front

What is the effect of translating a figure 2 units left?

Back

The x-coordinate of every point decreases by 2.

Front

If a point (3, 4) is translated 5 units up, what are the new coordinates?

Back

(3, 9) because (3, 4) --> (3, 4 + 5).
