The imagerotate() function is an inbuilt function in PHP which is used to rotate an image with a given angle in degrees. The rotation center of the image is center. Syntax:
resource imagerotate( $image, $angle, $bgd_color, $ignore_transparent = 0 ) 
Parameters: This function accepts four parameters as mentioned above and described below:
  • $image: It is returned by one of the image creation functions, such as imagecreatetruecolor(). It is used to create size of image.
  • $angle: This parameter holds the rotation angle in degrees. The rotation angle is used to rotate an image in anticlockwise direction.
  • $bgd_color: This parameter holds the background color of uncovered zone after rotation.
  • $ignore_transparent: If this parameter set and non-zero then transparent colors are ignored.
Return Value: This function returns an image resource for the rotated image on success, or False on failure. Below programs illustrate the imagerotate() function in PHP: Program 1: php

// Assign image file to variable 
$image_name = 
'https://media.geeksforgeeks.org/wp-content/uploads/geeksforgeeks-15.png'; 
   
// Load image file 
$image = imagecreatefrompng($image_name);  

// Use imagerotate() function to rotate the image

$col_ellipse = imagecolorallocate($image, 0, 102, 0); 
   
// Function to draw the filled ellipse. 
imagefilledellipse($image, 250, 150, 400, 250, $col_ellipse); 

// Use imagerotate() function to rotate the image
$img = imagerotate($image, 90, 0);

// Output image in the browser 
header("Content-type: image/png");
