Rhombus Translation
1. The problem is to translate rhombus CDEF 4 units left and 13 units down on the coordinate plane.
2. The original coordinates are:
- C(2,4)
- D(6,4)
- F(2,8)
- E(6,8)
3. Translation 4 units left means subtracting 4 from each x-coordinate.
4. Translation 13 units down means subtracting 13 from each y-coordinate.
5. Calculate the new coordinates:
- C': $(2 - 4, 4 - 13) = (-2, -9)$
- D': $(6 - 4, 4 - 13) = (2, -9)$
- F': $(2 - 4, 8 - 13) = (-2, -5)$
- E': $(6 - 4, 8 - 13) = (2, -5)$
6. The translated rhombus C'D'E'F' has vertices at:
- C'(-2, -9)
- D'(2, -9)
- F'(-2, -5)
- E'(2, -5)
This completes the translation of the rhombus 4 units left and 13 units down.
