12.1.2 Translations - Worksheet (continued)

Example 3: Translate the figure with the given vertices along the given vector. 7. A ( − 4, − 4), B ( − 2, − 3), C ( − 1, 3); 〈 5, 0 〉

8. R ( − 3, 1), S ( − 2, 3), T (2, 3), U (3, l); 〈 0, − 4 〉

9. J ( − 2, 2), K ( − 1, 2), L ( − 1, − 2), M ( − 3, − l); 〈 3, 2 〉

Example 4: 10.  The Zulu people of southern Africa are known for their beadwork. To create a typical Zulu pattern, translate the polygon with vertices (l, 5), (2, 3), (l, 1), and (0, 3) along the vector 〈 0, − 4 〉 . Translate the image along the same vector. Repeat to generate a pattern. What are the vertices of the fourth polygon in the pattern?
