Question
- name the vector and write its component form.
- the vertices of \\( \triangle abc \\) are \\( a(2, 3) \\), \\( b(-1, 2) \\), and \\( c(0, 1) \\). translate \\( \triangle abc \\) using the vector \\( \langle 1, -4 \
angle \\). graph \\( \triangle abc \\) and its image.
- find the component form of the vector that translates \\( a(3, -2) \\) to \\( a(-1, 4) \\).
- write a rule for the translation of \\( \triangle rst \\) to \\( \triangle rst \\).
Problem 1
Step1: Identify the vector
The vector is from point \( J \) to point \( K \), so we name it \( \overrightarrow{JK} \).
Step2: Find component form
To find the component form \( \langle x_2 - x_1, y_2 - y_1
angle \), we first determine the coordinates of \( J \) and \( K \). From the grid, assume \( J \) is at \( (3, 1) \) and \( K \) is at \( (1, 2) \) (adjust based on grid, but generally, count the horizontal and vertical changes). The horizontal change is \( 1 - 3=-2 \), vertical change is \( 2 - 1 = 1 \). So component form is \( \langle - 2,1
angle \).
Step1: Translate each vertex
For a translation vector \( \langle h,k
angle=\langle1, - 4
angle \), the new coordinates \( (x',y')=(x + h,y + k) \).
- For \( A(2,3) \): \( A'(2 + 1,3-4)=(3,-1) \)
- For \( B(-1,2) \): \( B'(-1 + 1,2-4)=(0,-2) \)
- For \( C(0,1) \): \( C'(0 + 1,1-4)=(1,-3) \)
Step2: Graph
Plot \( A(2,3) \), \( B(-1,2) \), \( C(0,1) \) for \( \triangle ABC \) and \( A'(3,-1) \), \( B'(0,-2) \), \( C'(1,-3) \) for its image.
Step1: Use translation formula
The component form of the translation vector \( \langle h,k
angle \) is given by \( h=x' - x \) and \( k=y' - y \), where \( (x,y) \) is the original point and \( (x',y') \) is the translated point.
Step2: Calculate \( h \) and \( k \)
For \( A(3,-2) \) to \( A'(-1,4) \):
\( h=-1 - 3=-4 \)
\( k = 4-(-2)=6 \)
So the component form is \( \langle - 4,6
angle \).
