Which of the following represents a translation of the flag 1 unit up and 2 units to the right?

A flag is situated on a square grid. The whole flag takes up two squares on the grid. The flag itself, which is the shaded triangular shape, is located at the third column from the left and the third row from the bottom. The pole of the flag is located just right below the triangle itself. That is, the pole of the flag is at the third column from the left and second row from the bottom.
