This example demonstrates how to perform translation using a column vector. Key mathematical concepts include vectors and translation. Using GeoGebra commands such as Polygon, Intersect, Vector, and Translate, the construction of the translated figure is shown. Suitable for students at the junior high school level and above to learn about the concept and application of translation.

GeoGebra Commands & Parameters

  1. Polygon(B, C, A, D) → poly1, b, c, a, d
  2. Intersect(xAxis, yAxis) → K
  3. Vector(K, E) → u
  4. Translate(B, u) → B'
  5. Translate(C, u) → C'
  6. Translate(A, u) → A'
  7. Translate(D, u) → D'
  8. Polygon(B', C', A', D') → poly1', b', c', a', d'
