Answer :

your answer would be GHJ I hope this helps

Answer:  The image of triangle DEF is triangle GHJ.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given to find he image of triangle DEF under the following translation :

(x, y)   ⇒   (x + 7, y + 2).

From the graph, we notice that

the co-ordinates of the vertices of triangle DEF are D(-5, 1), E(-2, 4) and F(-2, 1).

Also, the co-ordinates of the vertices of the optional triangles are :

ABC :  A(-7, 4), B(-4, 7) and C(-4, 4)

GHJ :  G(2, 3), H(5, 6) and J(5, 3)

KLM :  K(1, -5), L(4, -2) and M(4, -5)

NPQ :  N(-7, -6), P(-4, -3) and Q(-4, -6).

Now, after the translation (x, y)   ⇒   (x + 7, y + 2), the co-ordinates of the vertices of triangle DEF becomes :

D(-5, 1)  ⇒  (-5+7, 1+2) = (2, 3),

E(-2, 4)  ⇒  (-2+7, 4+2) = (5, 6),

F(-2, 1)  ⇒   (-2+7, 1+2) = (5, 3).

We see that the transformed co-ordinates ae the co-ordinates of the vertices of triangle GHJ.

Thus, the required image of triangle DEF is triangle GHJ.
