Question

The coordinate points of triangle ABC are A(5,0), B(2,1), and C(-4,-4). If the triangle is translated 8 units right and 5 units down, what are the new coordinates?

Answer 1

Answer:

A(13,-5)

B(10,-4)

C(4,-9)

Step-by-step explanation:

Translation of 8 units right >>> affects the "x" coordinate. Add 8 to each x coordinate.

Translation of 5 units down >>> affects the "y" coordinate. Subtract 5 from each y coordinate.

The coordinates are:

A (5,0)

B (2,1)

C (-4,-4)

New coordinates would be:

A (5+8,0-5)

B(2+8,1-5)

C(-4+8,-4-5)

Hence,

A(13,-5)

B(10,-4)

C(4,-9)

These are the new coordinates after the translation given.
