What happens when you translate a shape?

When you translate a shape, you move it from one position to another without changing its size, shape, or orientation. This movement is defined by a specific distance and direction, typically represented by a vector. All points of the shape are shifted the same amount in the same direction, resulting in a congruent shape located at a different location in the coordinate plane. The properties of the shape, such as angles and lengths, remain unchanged during translation.
