Translation Rules and Effects

The video tutorial covers the concept of translations on the coordinate plane, explaining how to apply translation rules to move figures in different directions. It includes several examples demonstrating how to translate points and write rules for these transformations, focusing on both horizontal and vertical movements, as well as more complex translations involving both axes.

What is a translation in the context of coordinate geometry?

• A resizing of a figure

• A rotation of a figure

• A reflection of a figure

• A slide of a figure

How do you move a point to the right on the coordinate plane?

• Add to the y-coordinate

• Subtract from the x-coordinate

• Add to the x-coordinate

• Subtract from the y-coordinate

In a translation, what happens to the coordinates when you move a point up?

• Subtract from the x-coordinate

• Add to the y-coordinate

• Add to the x-coordinate

• Subtract from the y-coordinate

If a point is moved four units to the left, what happens to its x-coordinate?

• It increases by two

• It increases by four

• It decreases by four

• It remains the same

What is the new coordinate of point A after moving four to the left and three up from (5, 3)?

• (9, 4)

• (3, 8)

• (5, 7)

• (1, 6)

How are the x-coordinates affected when moving left in a translation?

• They are added to

• They are subtracted from

• They remain unchanged

• They are multiplied

What is the effect on y-coordinates when moving up in a translation?

• They remain unchanged

• They are added to

• They are divided

• They are subtracted from

In Example 2, how many units is the shape moved down?

• Three units

• Four units

• Five units

• Six units

What is the rule for translating a shape down five and right four?

• x + 4, y + 5

• x - 4, y - 5

• x + 4, y - 5

• x - 4, y + 5

In Example 3, how many units is the shape moved up?

• Three units

• Four units

• Five units

• Six units
