If a translation of T (2, -7) is applied to the triangle ABC as shown in the figure attached hereby for reference, and B (1, 5) gets repositioned to B', then the current coordinates of B' are (3, -2).

As per the question statement, a translation of T (2, -7) is applied to the triangle ABC as shown in the figure attached hereby for reference, and B (1, 5) gets repositioned to B'.

We are required to calculate the coordinates of B'.

To solve this question, we need to know what Translation (a, b) to (x, y) and (-a, -b) to (x, y) means. Translation (a, b) to (x, y) means the abscissa "x" is to be shifted to the right by "a" units while the ordinate "y" is to be shifted to the right by "b" units, i.e., after translation, the new coordinates become [(a + x), (b + x)]. On the other hand, Translation (-a, -b) to (x, y) means the abscissa "x" is to be shifted to the left by "a" units while the ordinate "y" is to be shifted to the left by "b" units, i.e., after translation, the new coordinates become [(a - x), (b - x)].

Here, as per the above mentioned concept, a translation of T (2, -7) if applied to the point B (1, 5), the new point B' will be at [tex][(1+2), (5+(-7)]=[3, (-2)][/tex].

  • Translation: In Coordinate Geometry, a translation is a repositioning of a point or a figure from one location to another location without changing its size, shape or orientation.
  • Coordinates: The coordinates of a point are a pair of numbers that define its exact location on a two-dimensional coordinate plane by using the horizontal and vertical distances from the two reference axes
