What is a translation in geometry?

Back

A translation is a transformation that moves every point of a figure the same distance in a specified direction.

Front

What coordinates are affected when translating a figure left or right?

Back

The x-coordinates are affected.

Front

If a point (3, 4) is translated 5 units to the right and 2 units up, what are the new coordinates?

Back

(8, 6).

Front

What is the translation rule for moving a point (x, y) 3 units left and 2 units down?

Back

(x-3, y-2).

Front

Identify the transformation from ABC to A'B'C' if the rule is (x+8, y+4).

Back

The transformation is a translation 8 units to the right and 4 units up.

Front

What does the term 'vector' refer to in the context of translations?

Back

A vector is a quantity that has both direction and magnitude, used to describe the translation.

Front

How do you represent a translation on a coordinate plane?

Back

By using a translation vector, such as (x+a, y+b), where a and b are the horizontal and vertical shifts.
