Use the translation to move the points by subtracting 1 from the x-coordinates and subtracting 5 from the y-coordinates of each vertex.
Before we attempt to translate the given points, let's draw the quadrilateral ABCD on a coordinate plane using the given points. This will be our preimage.
Now that we have the preimage, we can create the image using the translation (x,y) → (x- 1,y- 5). This translation tells us that for every point in ABCD, we should subtract 1 from each x-coordinate and subtract 5 from each y-coordinate.
We can see that the translation moved the points to the left and down. Finally, we can connect the points to have the new quadrilateral.
