Question

Joni translates a right triangle 2 units down 4 units to the right. How does the orientation of the image of the triangle compare with the orientation of the preimage

Answer 1

The orientation of the image will be the same as the pre-image of the triangle.

Explanation:

Given:

A right triangle is translated by moving it 2 units down and 4 units to the right.

To tell how the given translation will change the orientation of the image of the triangle compared with the orientation of the pre-image.

Solution:

Translation is a type of transformation in which the all the points in the shape moves equal distances in same direction.

For the given translation, all the three vertices of the right triangle will move 2 units down and 4 units to the right. Thus, it will have no effect on the orientation of the image as all points move equal distances and in same direction.

The orientation of the image will be the same as the pre-image of the triangle.
