When a figure is translated on a coordinate grid, what conclusion can you draw from the pre-image and image?

The angles remain the same, and the shape of the figure changes.
The side lengths remain the same, and the orientation of the figure changes.
The angles remain the same, and the size of the figure changes.
The side lengths remain the same, and the position of the figure changes.

Respuesta :

In a translation the angles and side lengths of the figure remain the same.  Only the position changes.

D is correct.

Answer:

The side lengths remain the same, and the position of the figure changes.

Step-by-step explanation:

A translation is a slide of a figure.  A figure can be slid vertically, horizontally or diagonally.

Think of sliding a game board across a table.  The lengths of the sides of the board do not change; the angles formed by the sides of the board do not change; and the way the board is turned does not change.  This means the only correct option would be the last one.
