Translations involve shifting a geometric figure to a new location on the coordinate plane without changing its size or orientation. This is done by moving each vertex of the figure by the same amounts in the x and y directions. Examples show translating a square 4 units up, 3 units right, and 1 unit down, which would move it from the first quadrant to the second quadrant of the coordinate plane.

2. TRANSLATION
In geometry, a translation is the shifting of a
figure from one place to another without
rotating, reflecting or changing its size. This is
done by moving the vertices of the figure the
prescribed number of spaces on a coordinate
plane and then drawing the new figure.
