Question

A 40-degree angle is translated 5 inches along a vector. What is the angle measurement, in degrees, of the Image?

Answer 1

Answer:

40°

Step-by-step explanation:

As clarified in an online document, a translation along a vector (which is a line in a plane) of a figure, is equivalent to a translation along a coordinate grid, and therefore, given that a translation is a form of rigid transformation, the the dimensions and inclinations of the rays forming the preimage are the same as those in the image and the angles measurement in the preimage and the image are equal.

Therefore, given that the angle measurement of the image is 40-degrees, the angle measurement of the image is also 40-degree (40°) angle.
