Question

Given triangle JKL,write the coordinates of the vertices of a triangle J’K’L’ that result from a translation of triangle JKL two units to the left

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

since I don't have any data about the coordinates, I am simply calling them xj, yj, and xj' and yj'.

J = (xj, yj)

K = (xk, yk)

L = = (xl, yl)

a translation (shift) 2 units to the left just means, that the y coordinates regain the same, but the x coordinates are decreased ("to the left" = getting smaller) by 2.

J' = (xj - 2, yj)

K' = (xk - 2, yk)

L' = (xl - 2, yl)
