Question

raiph draws a triangle on the coordinate grid. its vertices are at (7,-3), (4, -7), and (-1,5). he translates this triangle, 4 units up and 2 units to the left. what are the coordinates of the lowest vertex on the translated triangle? (1 point)

(2,-11)

(2,6)

(2,-3)

(6,-3)

Explanation:

Step1: Define translation rule

Translation: (x-2, y+4) (left 2, up 4)

Step2: Translate each vertex

(7,-3)→(5,1); (4,-7)→(2,-3); (-1,5)→(-3,9)

Step3: Find lowest vertex (smallest y)

Translated vertices: (5,1), (2,-3), (-3,9). Smallest y=-3 at (2,-3)

Answer:

C. (2,-3)
