To determine the translation rule from triangle ΔTUV to triangle ΔT’U’V’, you need to identify how the coordinates of points in ΔTUV change to become those in ΔT’U’V’.
If the translation results in subtracting certain values from the x and y coordinates, we can express the translation rule in the form (x, y) ↦ (x − a, y − b), where “a” and “b” are the distances moved in the x and y directions, respectively.
For example, if the translation moves left by 3 units and down by 2 units, the translation rule would be:
(x, y) ↦ (x − 3, y − 2).
To find “a” and “b”, you need the original and translated coordinates of the vertices of the triangles. Once you have those specific values, you can fill them in the blanks.
If you have those coordinates, feel free to share them for more specific guidance!
