Question

1. in the following diagram, draw the image of quadrilateral abcd when translated by the directed line segment v. label the image of a as a, the image of b as b, the image of c as c and the image of d as d. 3. which statement is true about a translation? a. a translation takes a line to a parallel line or to itself b. a translation takes a line to a perpendicular line

Explanation:

Step1: Recall translation property

Translation is a rigid - motion transformation. It moves every point of a figure the same distance in the same direction. When a line is translated, its orientation does not change.

Step2: Analyze options

For option A, since the direction of the line is preserved in a translation, a translation takes a line to a parallel line or to itself. For option B, a translation does not change the angle between lines. A perpendicular relationship between lines is not created by translation.

Answer:

A. A translation takes a line to a parallel line or to itself
