Draw straight line WX = 7cm ∢ ZWX using compass Construct 600 Measure WZ = 5.5cm Set compass to a separation of 7cm and with centre Z, construct an arc above X. Set compass to a separation of 5.5 cm and with centre X, construct a second arc to intersect the first arc. The intersection of the two arcs is the point Y. Measure WY = 10.9cm
Q6 a.(ii) P 1
Q 4
Note from the diagram above that if object P Translated by 1 unit down and 4 units to the right, then this is represented by a Translation T = (4,-1). which would map P onto Q.
So: BCL is mapped unto HFG by a translation T represented by: T = (4,-1)

so
2 x −4x− 2 = 0 will give the roots ( -0.4, and 4.4)
