Questions and Answers

What effect does translating a quadrilateral to the left have on its side lengths?

The side lengths remain unchanged. (correct)
The side lengths change randomly.
The side lengths become longer.
The side lengths become shorter.

If quadrilateral PQRS is translated left by 4 units, how does this affect the angles of the quadrilateral?

The angles change in an unpredictable manner.
The angles become smaller.
The angles become larger.
The angles remain the same. (correct)

In the context of translation, what can be inferred about the relationship between PQ and P'Q' after the translation?

PQ is twice the length of P'Q'.
PQ is equal to P'Q'. (correct)
PQ is unrelated to P'Q' in terms of length.

Study Notes

Quadrilateral Translation

A quadrilateral PQRS is translated 4 units to the left to form another quadrilateral P'Q'R'S'.
The length of PQ remains the same as the length of P'Q'.
The translation does not affect the length of the sides.
The correct answer is C.
