Translation in a Direction
Read this topicExplanations 7
- A translation is when you "slide" an object from one place on the 2D plane to another. The translated object stays congruent and it stays in the same orientation (which is chang…

- For reference, here is "What is a congruence transformation?" Just to review: Isometries are a type of transformation, and if you read the title you might have guessed that a tr…

- A translation is the movement of an object from one place to another on the 2D coordinate plane. The shape of the object does not change after it is translated; it is just moved…

- Translation, in geometry, simply means "moving" a shape without actually rotating or changing the size of it. All the points of that particular shape must move the same distance…

- If we shift ABCABCABC to the right, we get
- Is there an isometry that takes takes triangle PQRPQRPQR to XYZXYZXYZ?
- If we shift ABCABCABC to the right, we get XYZXYZXYZ. Is this shift an isometry?
- Do translations change the shape or size of an object?
- A polygon has vertices (5,4), (1,2), (5,7), (−3,8)\left(5,4\right),\ \left(1,2\right),\ \left(5,7\right),\ \left(-3,8\right)(5,4), (1,2), (5,7), (−3,8), if we move it two units …
- A triangle has vertices (1, 2), (5, 9), (10, 3). We translate the triangle so the old (1, 2) vertex is now (5, 5). What are the two other vertices after the translation?
- Translate the shape on the coordinate plane above 12 units to the right and 5 units downwards. Compare the new and old location of the shape. Denote the new locations of P, A, W…
- Point M(1, 2) is on a coordinate plane. What is the new coordinates of M after T−3,4T_{-3,4}T−3,4?
- Could the transformation above be achieved using only translations?
- A point has coordinates (4, 23) and after a translation, it now has coordinates (1, -5). Can you figure out the translation?
