How would you describe the effect on the coordinates of the vertices of the figure that is translated down 4 units and to the right 3 units
The coordinates of the vertices will each have their x-coordinate increased by 3 and their y-coordinate decreased by 4. This is because translation involves shifting an object in a certain direction by a certain amount, and in this case, the object is being shifted to the right and down.
To describe the effect on the coordinates of the vertices of the figure when translated down 4 units and to the right 3 units, follow these steps:
1. Identify the original coordinates of the vertices of the figure. Let's assume the original vertices are represented as (x, y).
2. Apply the translation by subtracting 4 from each y-coordinate (to move down 4 units) and adding 3 to each x-coordinate (to move right 3 units).
3. The new coordinates of the translated vertices will be (x + 3, y - 4).
Note: The translation affects all points in the figure equally.
