Question

quadrilateral abcd is translated down and left to form quadrilateral olmn. figure may not be drawn to scale. if ab = 6 units, bc = 5 units, cd = 8 units, and ad = 10 units, what is lo? options: 10 units, 8 units, 5 units, 6 units

Explanation:

Step1: Recall translation properties

Translation is a rigid transformation, so corresponding sides of the original and translated figures are equal.

Step2: Identify corresponding sides

In quadrilateral \(ABCD\) and its translation \(OLMN\), side \(AB\) corresponds to side \(LO\).

Step3: Use given length of \(AB\)

Given \(AB = 6\) units, so \(LO = AB = 6\) units.

Answer:

6 units (corresponding to the option with "6 units")
