Slide is a transformation in which every point of the plane figure moves in the same direction by the same distance. A slide is also called as translation.
The following figure shows a slide or translation.
Figure-1 is translated to Figure-2 by moving Figure-1 to its right.Observe that each point in Figure-2 is the same distance (5 units) from the corresponding point in Figure -1.
A. Figure-3
B. Figure-1
C. Figure-2
D. Figure-2 and Figure-3
Correct Answer: B
Step 1: Slide is a transformation in which every point of the plane figure moves in the same direction by the same distance.
Step 2: Among the 3 figures, Figure-1 represents the slide of the figure (A). [Figure-1 is 2 units up and 3 units to the right of Figure (A).]
