Shifting of Origin

Point P has coordinate (x, y) in the original coordinate system, i.e. in xy-coordinate system.

If the new origin takes position as O’(h, k) with new x and y axes remaining parallel to old axes.

The coordinates of the point P are now (X,Y)=(xh,yk) w.r.t. the new coordinate system (i.e. YOX).
Thus, X=xh and Y=yk
Or, x=X+h and y=Y+k
Note:
If the function f(x,y)=0 is with respect to original coordinate system, then the equation with respect to new coordinate system is f(x+h,y+k)=0.
