Question

quadrilateral abcd is translated down and left to form quadrilateral olmn. if ab = 6 units, bc = 5 units, cd = 8 units, and ad = 10 units, what is lo? figure may not be drawn to scale.

Explanation:

Step1: Recall the property of translation

Translation is a rigid transformation. Rigid transformations (translations, rotations, reflections) preserve the lengths of segments.

Step2: Identify the corresponding segment

Quadrilateral \(OLMN\) is the translation of quadrilateral \(ABCD\). Segment \(LO\) corresponds to segment \(AB\).

Answer:

\(6\) units
