Point 3 of 4

20.2.3 Translation in the Coordinate Plane

Core idea

Slide the whole picture a units right and b units up, and every point simply gains a on its x and b on its y.

Module goal. Turn reflection, point symmetry, and translation into simple add-subtract and sign-flip rules on coordinates, laying the groundwork for transforming function graphs later
