Question

look at this shape: image of a blue l - shaped figure on a grid which image shows a translation? images of three figures labeled a, b, c on grids a b c

Explanation:

Translation in geometry means moving a shape without rotating or reflecting it, so the shape's orientation and size remain the same, just its position changes.

• Option A: The shape is rotated (orientation changed), so not a translation.
• Option B: The shape has the same orientation and size as the original, just moved (translated) to a new position.
