Rotations

Front

What is a 180 degree rotation in the coordinate plane?

Back

A transformation that turns a figure around a point (usually the origin) by 180 degrees, resulting in the coordinates changing from (x, y) to (-x, -y).

Front

How can you determine the direction of rotation (clockwise or counterclockwise)?

Back

Clockwise rotation moves points in the direction of the hands of a clock, while counterclockwise moves them in the opposite direction.
