Exercise 6 Page 603

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

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_(<-4,7>)(x,y) This means we should subtract 4 to each x-coordinate and add 7 to each y-coordinate of all of the vertices.

(x,y) (x- 4,y+7) (x',y')
( 0,-4) ( 0 - 4,-4+7) (-4,3)
(-2,-1) (-2- 4,-1+7) (-6,6)
(- 6, 1) (-6- 4, 1+7) (-10,8)

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