Question

look at this shape: image of a green triangle on a grid which image shows a translation? images of three triangles labeled a, b, c on grids

Explanation:

A translation is a transformation that slides a figure without rotating or reflecting it, so the shape, size, and orientation remain the same. Let's analyze each option:

• Option A: The triangle's orientation is changed (it's flipped or rotated), so it's not a translation.
• Option B: The triangle's orientation and shape appear distorted or rotated, not a translation.
• Option C: The triangle has the same shape, size, and orientation as the original, just moved (slid) to a new position, which is a translation.

Answer:

C
