Work Sheet - Translation

Please do all working on this sheet then construct the graphs and plot the
shapes.

1. The point A(2,3) , B(4,5) and C(7,3) are vertices of a triangle ABC. What is the

(2 )
image of triangle ABC under the translation T = 3 ?

2. A quadrilateral ABCD has vertices A(2,1) , B(6,1) ,C(5,3) and D(4,3). If the
image ABCD under translation T = (−52) is A'B'C'D'. Find the coordinates of
A'B'C'D'.

3. A parallelogram is defined by the points A(2,1) , B(3,3) ,C(6,3) and D(5,1). Find

the point of the image when the translation undergoes a translation T = 5 . (2 )

4. Draw axes of X and Y from -5 to 9. Draw triangle ABC, with A(-4,5) , B(2,3)
,C(2,5).

Translate triangle ABC using the vector (51) . Label the image A'B'C' the translate
(−1 )
triangle A'B'C' using the vector −3 .

(−9)
5. Under the translation T = 5 , triangle ABC is mapped unto Triangle A'B'C'
with coordinates A(2,-3) , B(4,-1) ,C(5,-6), what are the coordinates of A ,B and C.

6. Under the translation T = −6 , figure KLMN is mapped unto figure K'L'M'N'
with vertices K(-3,-2) , L(-2,-4) ,M(-3,-5) and N( 0,-3), what are the coordinates of
K'L'M'N.
