Question

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

Explanation:

Step1: Recall Translation Definition

Translation is a transformation that slides a figure without rotating or reflecting it, so the shape, size, and orientation remain the same.

Step2: Analyze Each Option

• Option A: The shape is rotated (orientation changed), so not a translation.
• Option B: The shape has the same orientation, size, and shape as the original, just moved (slid) – this fits translation.
• Option C: The shape is reflected (mirror image), so not a translation.

Answer:

B. Option B
