Question

look at this shape: shape image which image shows a translation? images a, b, c a b c

Explanation:

Step1: Recall Translation Definition

Translation is a transformation that slides a shape without rotating or reflecting it, so the shape's orientation and size remain the same, only its position changes.

Step2: Analyze Each Option

• Option A: The shape appears rotated (orientation changed), so not a translation.
• Option B: The shape has the same orientation and size as the original, just moved (slid) to a new position. This fits translation.
• Option C: The shape appears rotated (orientation changed), so not a translation.

Answer:

B. The middle image (Option B)
