Question

which figures are translations of figure a? choose all that apply. figure b figure c figure d figure e figure f

Explanation:

Step1: Recall the definition of translation

Translation is a transformation that slides a figure without rotating or resizing it.

Step2: Analyze each figure

• Figure B: It has a different shape (a slanted side) compared to figure A, so it is not a translation.
• Figure C: It has the same shape and size as figure A and can be obtained by sliding (translation).
• Figure D: It has the same shape and size as figure A and can be obtained by sliding (translation).
• Figure E: It has a different orientation (rotated in a sense of connection of segments) compared to figure A, so it is not a translation.
• Figure F: It has a different shape (a shorter vertical segment) compared to figure A, so it is not a translation.

Answer:

Figure C, Figure D
