How to apply a transformation vector to translate a figure

The video tutorial explains how to apply a transformation vector to a polygon. It begins with plotting and labeling points, then introduces a transformation vector to shift the polygon. A correction is made to the vector, and the process of replotting points using the corrected vector is demonstrated. Finally, the tutorial shows how to connect the transformed points to complete the transformation.

What is the first step in preparing to apply a transformation vector to a shape?

• Identify the center of the shape

• Label the points on the graph

• Draw the transformation vector

• Calculate the area of the shape

What does the transformation vector (-4, -3) instruct you to do?

• Move right 4 units and up 3 units

• Move left 4 units and down 3 units

• Move left 3 units and down 4 units

• Move right 3 units and up 4 units

How do you apply a transformation vector to a point on a graph?

• Multiply the coordinates by the vector values

• Add the vector values to the coordinates

• Subtract the vector values from the coordinates

• Divide the coordinates by the vector values

What is the result of applying a transformation vector to a shape?

• The shape is resized

• The shape is reflected

• The shape is translated

• The shape is rotated

What do we call the new points after applying the transformation vector?

• Shifted points

• Original points

• Prime points

• Secondary points
