Question

determine whether triangle def is a translation of triangle abc. enter the number of the correct statement. statement #1: triangle def is a translation of triangle abc because each point is translated 8 units to the right and 2 units down. statement #2: triangle def is not a translation of triangle abc because the triangles are not congruent. (1 point)

Explanation:

Step1: Check translation rule

For point A(-5, 5), if translated 8 units right and 2 units down, new - x=-5 + 8 = 3, new - y=5 - 2 = 3. But D(3, 3) is correct. Do the same for other points.
For B(-4, 2), new - x=-4 + 8 = 4, new - y=2 - 2 = 0. And F(4, 0) is correct.
For C(-1, 5), new - x=-1+8 = 7, new - y=5 - 2 = 3. And E(7, 3) is correct.
Also, translations preserve congruence.

Answer:

Statement #1
