Question
Translation is
- Changing of position of image
- Rotation
- Shape
- Size
Hint:
The translation is the act of moving a shape or a figure from one location to another. A figure can move in translation up, down, right, left, or anywhere else in the coordinate system. Only the object's position changes during translation; its size stays the same.
The correct answer is: Changing of position of image
Now as we said that in translation, a point or a figure can move up, down, right, left, or anywhere else in the coordinate system. Any point can be located using a Cartesian coordinate system or coordinate system, and that point can be displayed as an ordered pair (x, y) known as Coordinates.
In cartesian plane there are 4 quadrants:
1st Quadrant
2nd Quadrant
3rd Quadrant
4th Quadrant
The sign patterns are in this way:
I- quadrant (+, +)
II-quadrant (-, +)
III-quadrant (-, -)
IV-quadrant (+, -)
Let's take an example:
(x, y) --> (x - 9, y + 3)
(x, y) --> (x + 2, y + 5)
So with these examples, we can see the translations happening by changing the position.
In this question, we used the concept of translation and found out the points according to the condition given. We also understood the concept of the cartesian system and the coordinates. In translation, only the position of the object changes, its size remains the same. Translation is changing of position of image.
