Exercise 9 Page 683

Add or subtract the necessary values to the x- and y-coordinates to find the new points.

B

Practice makes perfect

Let's begin by graphing the given vertices of the polygon.

We are asked to translate the given polygon using a translation written in function notation.

T_(<5,-2>)(x,y) This means we should add 5 to each x-coordinate and subtract 2 from each y-coordinate of all of the vertices.

(x,y) (x+ 5,y- 2) (x',y')
(1,-2) (1+ 5,-2- 2) (6,-4)
(5,-1) (5+ 5,-1- 2) (10,-3)
(4,- 4) (4+ 5,- 4- 2) (9,-6)

With these points, we are able to draw the transformed polygon.

Checking the coordinates and the answers for the problem, we can see that the answer is B.
