  1. Translating Individual Points

    1. (5, 9) ▶ View Solution
    2. (−2, 3) ▶ View Solution
    3. (6, 2) ▶ View Solution
    4. (3, 2) ▶ View Solution
  2. Translating Shapes

    1. A(1,1) B(4,1) C(2,3) right 3, up 2: A′(4,3), B′(7,3), C′(5,5) ▶ View Solution
    2. P(0,0) Q(4,0) R(4,2) S(0,2) left 2, down 3: P′(−2,−3), Q′(2,−3), R′(2,−1), S′(−2,−1) ▶ View Solution
    3. D(−1,2) E(1,2) F(0,5) right 4, down 4: D′(3,−2), E′(5,−2), F′(4,1) ▶ View Solution
    4. J(2,1) K(5,1) L(6,4) M(1,4) left 3, up 1: J′(−1,2), K′(2,2), L′(3,5), M′(−2,5) ▶ View Solution
  3. Describing Translations

    1. Right 3, up 3 ▶ View Solution
    2. Left 2, down 4 ▶ View Solution
    3. Left 2, up 4 ▶ View Solution
    4. No horizontal change, up 5 ▶ View Solution
  4. Properties of Translations

    1. Side lengths after translation: 3 cm, 4 cm, 5 cm — unchanged; translations preserve size ▶ View Solution
    2. Orientation after translation: No — orientation does not change; shape slides but does not flip or rotate ▶ View Solution
    3. Image overlaps original: False — unless the translation is zero (shape maps to itself) ▶ View Solution
    4. B′ = (7, 4) ▶ View Solution
  5. Translation Puzzles

    1. (9, 2) ▶ View Solution
    2. A = (1, 3); B = (4, 3); C = (2, 6) ▶ View Solution
    3. P(1,4) translated twice: Final (2, 0); single equivalent: right 1, down 4 ▶ View Solution
    4. Ship from (2,3): Final position: (4, 7); overall: right 2, up 4 ▶ View Solution
  6. Column Vector Notation

    1. (6, 5) ▶ View Solution
    2. (−2, 6) ▶ View Solution
    3. (5, −4) ▶ View Solution
    4. (0, 2) ▶ View Solution
  7. Reverse Translation

    1. A = (4, 2) ▶ View Solution

  8. Translations on a Coordinate Grid

    1. A(0,0) B(4,0) translated right 3, up 2: A′(3,2), B′(7,2); A′B′ = 4 units = AB; translations preserve length ▶ View Solution

    2. Left 6 up 2, then right 4 up 3: Left 2, up 5 ▶ View Solution
    3. Right 5 up 5, then back to start: Left 5, down 5 ▶ View Solution
    4. P(2,3): right 4 up 1, left 7 down 3, right 1 up 2: Final (0, 3); net translation: left 2, no vertical change ▶ View Solution
