Note that â–³KJN and â–³ABC have the same orientation but different positions.
Transformation: Translation
Function Notation: T_(<- 11,-4>) (x,y)
We will identify the mapping as a translation, reflection, rotation, or glide reflection. Then, we will write the rule for the transformation. Let's do it!
In the given diagram we want to identify the transformation that maps â–³KJN onto â–³ABC.
Note that â–³KJN and â–³ABC have the same orientation but different positions. Therefore, the transformation that maps â–³KJN onto â–³ABC is a translation.
In this case, if we translate â–³KJN 11 units to the left and then 4 units to down, we obtain â–³ABC.
We can say that the transformation that maps â–³KJN onto â–³ABC is a translation 11 units to the left and 4 units down. This can be written as T_(<- 11,- 4>) (x,y).
