Answer:
Directions: Write the new coordinates for each point or figure.
Sample Question:
Point F has the coordinates (-9,6). What are the coordinates of its image point after the translation of six units down and three units to the left?
Answer:
The coordinates of its image point after the translation are (-12, 0).
Explanation: When you look at an ordered pair the x number comes first, followed by the y number (x,y). Moving a point left or right changes the x number. Moving a point up or down changes the y number. Left and down require subtraction, while right and up require addition. In the sample, we had to go 3 units to the left, -9 - 3 = -12. We also had to go 6 units down, so 6 - 6 = 0.
Point Q has the coordinates (9,5). What are the coordinates of its image point after a translation of six units up and three units to the right?
Point P has the coordinates (3,4). What are the coordinates of its image point after a translation of 8 units down and 5 units to the left?
Point Z has the coordinates (10,7). What are the coordinates of its image point after a translation of six units down and three units to the right?
Point Y has the coordinates (0,-4). What are the coordinates of its image point after a translation of 10 units up and 3 units to the left?
Point X has the coordinates (3,-8). What are the coordinates of its image points after a translation of 11 units down and 10 units to the right?
