"Transformations - Translations"
The way you know when a figure is the original and transformation is that the original figure has everything the same and the transformation figure has a little 'apostrophe'. For example, A,G,H is the original figure and A',G',H' is the transformation figure because it has apostrophes. The new points are called transformations. Different words you could use to describe translation are move, location, number of units. A translated figure with never change it's shape. It will only change its location. The way you translate a figure without a coordinate plane is by subtracting it by the number that's not the same and if the numbers are both not the same you would subtract both and if we get negative you need to get it's absolute value.
