Question

write the coordinates of the vertices after a translation 1 unit left and 17 units down.

Explanation:

Step1: Identify original coordinates

Original vertices: $F(-5, 7)$, $H(-5, 9)$, $G(5, 7)$

Step2: Apply translation rule

For a point $(x,y)$, translate 1 left ($x-1$) and 17 down ($y-17$):

• For $F$: $x=-5-1=-6$, $y=7-17=-10$
• For $H$: $x=-5-1=-6$, $y=9-17=-8$
• For $G$: $x=5-1=4$, $y=7-17=-10$

Answer:

$F'(-6, -10)$, $H'(-6, -8)$, $G'(4, -10)$
