1. Define "translation" in the context of geometry. What properties of a shape remain unchanged during a translation?
2. Explain how the x and y coordinates of a point change when a shape is translated to the right. What about when it's translated down?
3. Triangle ABC has vertices A(2, 3), B(4, 7), and C(1, 5). If the triangle is translated 5 units to the left and 2 units up, what are the new coordinates of the vertices A', B', and C'?
