Copy of Translation Exploration Activity
The coordinates of the preimage (Triangle ABC) are blue. The coordinates of the image (Triangle A'B'C') are pink. Grab any preimage point and move it around the graph.
A vector shoes distance and direction to translate an object. Notice the arrows all go in the same direction, which match the vector shown at the origin.
Move point A' to (14,2)
1, What do you notice about the difference between the coordinates of the preimage (A, B and C) and the image (A', B' and C')
2. Write a rule using the format below for how each point's (A, B and C) coordinates changed.
(x,y) --> ( x + ___, y + ____)
