Question

1.7.3 quiz: coordinate geometry with polygons if abcde is translated 7 units to the right and 2 units up, what will happen to the polygon? a. it will move, change shape, and change size. b. it will stay where it is but get bigger. c. it will move but wont change shape or size.

Explanation:

Translation is a rigid - motion transformation. In a translation, every point of the polygon is moved the same distance and in the same direction. Rigid - motion transformations preserve the shape and size of the figure. So, when polygon \(ABCDE\) is translated 7 units to the right and 2 units up, it will just change its position.

Answer:

C. It will move but won't change shape or size.
