A translation is applied to the square formed by the points A(−3, −4) , B(−3, 5) , C(6, 5) , and D(6, −4) . The image is the squ
are that has vertices A′(−3, −6) , B′(−3, 3) , C′(6, 3) and D′(6, −6) . Select the phrase from the drop-down menu to correctly describe the translation.
The square was translated
A. 2 units down
B. 10 units down
C. 10 units to the left
D. 2 units to the left
All of the x values are the same so it is not moving left or right. The y values are changing by being 2 less than the original. If you subtract 2 from each y value you get the new set of ordered pairs. It is moving 2 units down Letter A
