If a triangle with vertices (4,3), (8,3) and (7,5) is translated to the right 4 units and down 2 units what are the vertices of translated figure?
To translate a figure to the right, we add the same value to the x-coordinates of each vertex. To translate a figure down, we subtract the same value from the y-coordinates of each vertex.
So, to translate the triangle to the right 4 units, we add 4 to the x-coordinate of each vertex:
Vertex 1: (4 + 4, 3) = (8, 3)
Vertex 2: (8 + 4, 3) = (12, 3)
Vertex 3: (7 + 4, 5) = (11, 5)
And to translate the triangle down 2 units, we subtract 2 from the y-coordinate of each vertex:
Vertex 1: (8, 3 - 2) = (8, 1)
Vertex 2: (12, 3 - 2) = (12, 1)
Vertex 3: (11, 5 - 2) = (11, 3)
Therefore, the vertices of the translated triangle are (8, 1), (12, 1), and (11, 3).
