CCGPS CA 5.2.1 Example 1

How far and in what direction does the point [math]P (x, y)[/math] move when translated by the function [math]T_{24, 10}[/math]?

[list=1] [*]Each point translated by [math]T_{24, 10}[/math] will be moved right 24 units, parallel to the [i]x[/i]-axis. [*]The point will then be moved up 10 units, parallel to the [i]y[/i]-axis. [*]Therefore, [math]T_{24, 10}(P) = P' = (x + 24, y + 10)[/math]. [/list] This applet is provided by Walch Education as supplemental material for the [i]CCGPS Coordinate Algebra[/i] program.

CCGPS CA 5.2.1 Example 2

Using the definitions described earlier, write the translation [math]T_{5, 3}[/math] of the rotation [math]R_{180}[/math] in terms of a function [math]F[/math] on [math](x, y)[/math].

[list=1] [*]Write the problem symbolically. [*]Start from the inside and work outward. [*]Translate the point. [*]Write the result of both translations.
