How is trapezoid ABCD translated to trapezoid A'B'C'D'?

• Translated 5 units down and 5 units to the right

• Translated 5 units down and 1 to the right

• Translated 8 units down and 5 units to the right

• Translated 5 units down and 4 units to the right

Answer explanation

If you follow a particular vertice (corner) of the blue figure, it would need to translate down 8 and right 5 units in order to map to (line up with) with that same vertice (corner) of the green figure.
