Question

rectangle vwxy is a translation of rectangle vwxy. write the translation rule. (x, y) → (x + , y + )

Explanation:

Step1: Find x - translation

Pick a vertex, say V(-1,-1). Its image V'(7,8). The change in x - coordinate is \(7-(-1)=8\).

Step2: Find y - translation

The change in y - coordinate for the same vertex is \(8 - (-1)=9\).

Answer:

\((x,y)\to(x + 8,y + 9)\)
