Translations

Front

What is a translation in geometry?

Back

A translation is a type of transformation that moves every point of a shape or object a certain distance in a specified direction.

Front

How do you translate a point (x, y) 3 units right and 2 units up?

Back

The new coordinates will be (x + 3, y + 2).

Front

What are the coordinates of the point (2, 5) after translating it 4 units left and 3 units down?

Back

The new coordinates will be (-2, 2).

Front

If Point A is at (1, 1) and is translated 5 units right, what are the new coordinates?

Back

The new coordinates will be (6, 1).

Front

What is the effect of translating a point 0 units in the x-direction and 0 units in the y-direction?

Back

The point remains unchanged; its coordinates stay the same.

Front

How do you express a translation of 7 units left and 4 units down in coordinate form?

Back

The translation can be expressed as (x - 7, y - 4).

Front

What is the image of the point (3, 4) after translating it 2 units left and 5 units up?

Back

The new coordinates will be (1, 9).

Front

If a point is translated 6 units down, how does this affect its y-coordinate?

Back

The y-coordinate decreases by 6.

Front

What is the translation rule for moving a point 10 units right and 3 units down?

Back

The translation rule is (x + 10, y - 3).

Front

If Point B is at (-2, 3) and is translated 4 units left and 1 unit up, what are the new coordinates?

Back

The new coordinates will be (-6, 4).
