Apply a translation vector to translate a figure ex 1

The video tutorial demonstrates how to apply a translation vector to transform a set of coordinates. It begins with an introduction to the concept of transformation using a translation vector. The instructor then graphs the figure and applies the vector to each coordinate point, explaining the process step-by-step. After applying the vector, the new points are labeled and connected to form the transformed image. Finally, the instructor calculates and verifies the new coordinates, ensuring the transformation is accurate.

What is the purpose of a translation vector in transformations?

• To rotate the figure

• To reflect the figure

• To shift the figure

• To scale the figure

How does the translation vector (-2, 1) affect a point on a graph?

• Moves it 2 units right and 1 unit down

• Moves it 2 units left and 1 unit up

• Moves it 2 units up and 1 unit right

• Moves it 2 units down and 1 unit left

What is the new label for a point after applying the translation vector?

• A prime

• A dash

• A star

• A double prime

What operation is performed to find the new coordinates of a point after translation?

• Divide the vector by the point

• Multiply the vector with the point

• Add the vector to the point

• Subtract the vector from the point

If the original point is (6, 4) and the translation vector is (-2, 1), what are the new coordinates?

• (4, 3)

• (8, 3)

• (4, 5)

• (6, 5)
