Question

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

Explanation:

Step1: Recall the property of translation

Translation is a rigid transformation. Rigid transformations (translations, rotations, reflections) preserve the lengths of the sides of a figure.

Step2: Identify the corresponding sides

In quadrilateral \(ABCD\) and its translated image \(OLMN\), side \(AB\) corresponds to side \(OL\).

Answer:

B. 6 units
