Introduction
Read the brief explanation below before attempting the questions.
A translation moves every point of a shape the same distance in the same direction. It can be described using a horizontal and vertical shift, such as (x + 3, y - 2).

[2 marks]4.
A point at (0, 0) is translated 6 units left and 3 units down. Write the translated point.
[2 marks]5.
If a figure is translated 2 units right and 3 units up, what is the translation rule in coordinate form?
[2 marks]6.
A shape moves from (2, 3) to (5, 7). What translation was applied?
[2 marks]7.
A point at (8, -1) is translated 3 units left and 2 units down. Find the new point.
[2 marks]8.
Describe what a translation does to a shape in your own words.
[3 marks]9.
A triangle has vertices at (1, 2), (3, 4), and (5, 2). It is translated 2 units left and 1 unit up. Write the new coordinates of each vertex.
[4 marks]10.
A rectangle is moved from its original position to a new position using a translation of (x - 4, y + 2). If one vertex was at (6, 7), where is it now?
