Translations are done by adding or subtracting values from the x-coordinate if the figure is being moved left or right, and from the y-coordinate if the figure is being moved up or down.
A'(- 5,3), B'(- 3,4), C'(2,2), D'(0,- 2)
Practice makes perfect
Let's start by plotting the given points and connecting them to draw our quadrilateral.
Translations are done by adding or subtracting values from the x-coordinate if the figure is being moved left or right, and from the y-coordinate if the figure is being moved up or down. We want to draw the image of our figure after a translation 4 units up. Therefore, we will add 4 to the y-coordinate of each vertex.
