Moving an object from one place to another is called a translation. if you go to study jam. click math or search geometry. then search 'Transformation' in the video it talks about: Reflection, Translation, and Rotation <span />
By translating a shape, you are basically moving it around the graph. For example, one of the points of your shape could be on the origin (0,0). You could then translate it 4 units up and 6 units to the left. You would write this translation as (x-6, y+4). If you were starting at (0,0) your point translation would be at (-6, 4), but if you were to translate a point at (1, 1) your translated point would be at (-5, 5).
