Beamer · Answer 1

Hmm, (x, y)

x is horizontal or left right

y is vertical or up down

so

we see that A to F is move left 2 and down 5

B to G is left 2 and down 5

C to H is left 2 and down 5

so translatete ABC left 2 and down 5 and

translate FGH right 2 and up 5

not 1st option

2nd works

3rd works

4th is false

2nd and 3rd
