How do you describe a translation mathematically?

Back

A translation can be described using a vector, such as (x+a, y+b), where 'a' is the horizontal shift and 'b' is the vertical shift.

What is the new location of triangle A after a 90° counterclockwise rotation around the origin?

Back

The new location can be determined by applying the rotation rule to each vertex of the triangle.
