QuestionLook at this shape:
Which image shows a translation?
A B C
A B C

Studdy Solution

STEP 1

1. A translation involves moving a shape without rotating or flipping it.
2. The shape's orientation remains unchanged during a translation.
3. The grid helps visualize the movement of the shape.

STEP 2

1. Understand the definition of translation.
2. Analyze each option to determine if it is a translation.
3. Identify the correct option that represents a translation.

STEP 3

Understand the definition of translation:
A translation is a transformation that slides a shape from one position to another without changing its orientation or size.

STEP 4

Analyze each option:
- Option A: The shape is in a different position but maintains the same orientation as the original shape. - Option B: The shape is rotated, which does not qualify as a translation. - Option C: The shape is in a different position but maintains the same orientation as the original shape.

STEP 5

Identify the correct option:
Both Option A and Option C show the shape in a different position with the same orientation, indicating a translation. Therefore, both options A and C represent a translation.
The images that show a translation are:
A and C \boxed{A \text{ and } C}
