To solve this problem, we can track one point of the figure to find the translation of the whole figure.
We will track the transformation of the top of the triangle: from the blue point to the red point:
And we draw a vertical line, and a horizontal line between the starting point, and the endpoint:
The vertical blue line is the amount that the figure moved up, and the horizontal red line is the amount that the figure moved to the right:
Thus, the statement that describes the transformation is:
8 units right 4 units up.
Answer:
8 units right 4 units up.
