VectorCoordinate GeometryTransformation
This example demonstrates the translation transformation in the Cartesian plane. Key mathematical concepts include translation vectors and geometric transformations. Using GeoGebra commands such as Segment, Intersect, Vector, Translate, and Angle, the construction of the translated figure is illustrated. Suitable for students at the junior high school level and above learning geometric transformations.

GeoGebra Commands & Parameters

  1. Segment(A, B) → a
  2. Segment(C, B) → b
  3. Intersect(xAxis, yAxis) → D
  4. Vector((0, 0), (h, v)) → u
  5. Translate(A, u) → A'
  6. Translate(B, u) → B'
  7. Segment(A', B') → a'
  8. Translate(C, u) → C'
  9. Segment(B', C') → d
  10. Angle(C, B, A) → α
  11. Angle(C', B', A') → α'
