A rotation of 360 degrees about the origin is equivalent to a rotation of 0 degrees and both are equivalent to the coordinate transformation ( 𝑥 , 𝑦 ) → ( 𝑥 , 𝑦 ) .
- What is the rule for a 180 degree clockwise rotation?
- What happens when you rotate 270 degrees clockwise?
What is the rule for a 180 degree clockwise rotation?
The rule for a rotation by 180° about the origin is (x,y)→(−x,−y) .
What happens when you rotate 270 degrees clockwise?
Rotating a figure 270 degrees clockwise is the same as rotating a figure 90 degrees counterclockwise. Example: What will be the coordinate of a point having coordinates (3,-6) after rotations as 90° anti-clockwise and 270° clockwise? The coordinate of a point is (-6, -3).
