Translation by a vector 2020-01-30
From Jude:
M(3,-2) is the image of the point M under a translation by the vector (-5,2). Find the coordinates of M
Answered by Penny Nom.
Translation of a graph 2012-06-02
From Sean:
the information is thus: $f(x)=3(x+1)^2-2$ I wish to translate up 2 units and move 2 units right.

y = 1/4(x+3)^2-4 2007-03-17
From Irene:
How the graph of a parabola f(x)=1/4(x+3)squared-4 can be obtained from the graph of y=xsquared, using Translations and Scalings.

From Katie:
Is the product of of two rotations over a different center point always a translation?

An expansion and a translation 2006-09-25
From meghan:

Write the equations for f(x) = squareroot(4 - (x - 2)^2) after:

a) a horizontal expansion by a factor of 2
Answer: f(x) = squareroot(4 - (1/2x - 2)^2)
b) a horizontal translation 3 units left
Answer: f(x) = squareroot(4 - (x + 1)^2)
c) the expansion in part a), then the translation in part b)
d) the translation in part b), then the expansion in part a)

I understand how to do a) and b), but I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do for the equations in a specific order (expansion, then translation vs. translation, then expansion).

Translate and magnify a triangle 2006-02-19
From A student:
Triangle CAT has vertices located at C(-2,5), A(-5,1), T(1,1)

Translate triangle CAT 4 units right and magnify the triangle by 3. List the new coordinates and explain the process of computing the new coordinates.

Graph triangle CAT and the new triangle form part A on the same coordinate plane....

Will the area of the new triangle be 3 times as large as the original?? Explain why or why not

English 2004-05-27
From Chang:
well my question is i was told by most of the teachers that ''think in english'' is the best way to learn english but how can i do like that do i need to know about the stucture first or do i need to learn the western culture ?

Moving a triangle 2002-04-18
From A student:
find the verticles of a triangle after it is translated 2 units to the left and then is reflected across the graph of y=x+2. The original verticles of the triangle are (2,0), (3,2), and (6,2).

From Jennifer:
Give the image of (p,q) when translated by the vector (-5,2).

Shape-preserving transformations 1999-05-04
From J McAndrew:
A shape preserves its shape if a rotation, translation or scaling is performed on it. Are these the only continuous transformations which have this property? These transformations if performed on the parts and then summed have the same effect as the transformation being applied to the whole; are these linear transformations? Who, and what area of mathematics has classified all transformations of this type completely?

Frieze Patterns 1998-08-19
From Brian Bairstow:
I am doing a research project on frieze patterns (also called band patterns or border patterns). I know that there are exactly seven different types of frieze patterns, but I have been unable to find a proof for this. If you could tell me this proof, or tell me some internet sites on which I can find material on this, I would be very grateful.
