Question

describe the translation that maps figure j k l m to figure p q r s. translate figure j k l m units to form figure p q r s.

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze the vertical movement of a point

Take point \(K(1,2)\) and its corresponding point \(Q(1, - 1)\). Calculate the vertical change: \(2-(-1)=3\) units.

Step2: Determine the direction of translation

Since the \(y -\)coordinate of the image is less than that of the pre - image, the translation is downwards.

Answer:

Translate figure \(JKLM\) \(3\) units down to form figure \(PQRS\).
