Rotation
Rotation
Example
A rotation by 90° about the origin can be seen in the picture below
in which A is rotated to its image A'.
Example
A rotation by 180° about the origin can be seen in the picture below
in which A is rotated to its image A'.
Example
A rotation by 270° about the origin can be seen in the picture below in
which A is rotated to its image A'.
Example
2007.29 If the point (3, −2) is rotated clockwise about the origin through 90°, then the coordinates of its image are
A. (2, 3) . B. (3, 2) . C. (−2, −3) . D. (−3, −2) .
The image of (3, −2) after rotated clockwise 90° = (−2, −3) (the same as anticlockwise 270°)
