What's on the worksheet

  1. Fill in the blanks for a translation that sends (2, -3) to (-1, 1):
  2. Read a quadrilateral on a grid and find the image under a given translation.
  3. Decide if each rule is a translation and write its vector if it is.
    (x, y) \mapsto (x - 4,\ y)(x, y) \mapsto (y,\ x)(x, y) \mapsto (x + 2,\ 7 + y - 9)(x, y) \mapsto (x + 3,\ -y)(x, y) \mapsto (x + y,\ y + 1)
  4. Word problem: the path of a beetle in Hannah's video game animation.
  5. Find the translation that puts two vertices of a triangle on given lines.
  6. Find the mistake in Samir's translation of the line y equal to 3x plus 1.
  7. Decide if Leah is right that one translation can swap two points.
