  1. $40. Rotations intro. Google Classroom. Learn what rotations are and how to perform them in our interactive widget. What is a rotation? In the figure below, one copy of the trapezoid is rotating around the point. In geometry, rotations make things turn in a cycle around a definite center point.

    90 Degree Rotation

    When rotating a point 90 degrees counterclockwise about the origin our point A(x,y) becomes A'(-y,x). In other words, switch x and y and make y negative.

    180 Degree Rotation

    When rotating a point 180 degrees counterclockwise about the origin our point A(x,y) becomes A'(-x,-y). So all we do is make both x and y negative.

    270 Degree Rotation

    When rotating a point 270 degrees counterclockwise about the origin our point A(x,y) becomes A'(y,-x). This means, we switch x and y and make x negative.

    And just as we saw how two reflections back-to-back over parallel lines is equivalent to one translation, if a figure is reflected twice over intersecting lines, this composition of reflections is equal to one rotation. In fact, the angle of rotationis equal to twice that of the acute angle formed between the intersecting lines.

    Lastly, a figure in a plane has rotational symmetry if the figure can be mapped onto itself by a rotation of 180° or less. This means that if we turn an object 180° or less, the new image will look the same as the original preimage. And when describing rotational symmetry, it is always helpful to identify the order of rotations and the magnitude of...

  2. Transformations in math involve changing a shape's position or which way the shape points. There are three main types: translations (moving the shape), rotations (turning the shape), and reflections (flipping the shape like a mirror image). Rigid transformations keep the shape's size and angles the same.

  4. Transformations. Three of the most important transformations are: Rotation. Turn! Reflection. Flip! Translation. Slide! After any of those transformations (turn, flip or slide), the shape still has the same size, area, angles and line lengths.

  5. Microsoft Teams. Learn how to determine which rotation brings one given shape to another given shape. There are two properties of every rotation—the center and the angle. Determining the center of rotation. Rotations preserve distance, so the center of rotation must be equidistant from point P and its image P ′ .

  6. For an object rotating counterclockwise, the angular velocity points toward you along the axis of rotation. Angular velocity (ω) is the angular version of linear velocity v. Tangential velocity is the instantaneous linear velocity of an object in rotational motion.

  7. The distance from the center to any point on the shape stays the same. Every point makes a circle around the center: Here a triangle is rotated around. the point marked with a "+".
