Question

The point S(0,–2) is translated 4 units left. What are the coordinates of the resulting point, S'?

Answer 1

S(0,-2)

• Translated 4 units left means y coordinate is kept constant.
• x coordinate is decreased by 4

i.e

$\\ \sf{:}\Rrightarrow 0-4=-4$

New co-ordinates are

• (-4,-2)

Answer 2

Answer:

In Euclidean plane geometry, a tangent line to a circle is a line that touches the circle at exactly one point, never entering the circle's interior. Tangent lines to circles form the subject of several theorems, and play an important role in many geometrical constructions and proofs.
