A triangle with a vertex (-3,5) is translated up 6 units. What are the coordinates of this vertex after it is translated
The original vertex is (-3,5). When it is translated up 6 units, the y-coordinate increases by 6 and the x-coordinate stays the same. Therefore, the new vertex is (-3,11).
To translate a point up 6 units, we simply add 6 to the y-coordinate of the point.
Given that the vertex of the triangle is (-3, 5), after translating it up 6 units, the new y-coordinate will be 5 + 6 = 11. Therefore, the coordinates of the vertex after it is translated up are (-3, 11).
