Question

look at this shape: image of a trapezoid on grid which image shows a translation? images of three trapezoids labeled a, b, c on grids a b c

Explanation:

A translation is a transformation that slides a figure without rotating or resizing it. Let's analyze each option:

• Option A: The shape appears to be rotated (the orientation of the slanted side has changed), so it's not a translation.
• Option B: The shape looks identical in size, shape, and orientation to the original, just moved (slid) to a different position. This fits the definition of a translation.
• Option C: The shape seems to be rotated (the orientation of the base and slanted side has changed), so it's not a translation.

Answer:

B
