CL-X
x & y switch places
x becomes its opposite
-x → +x
+x → -x

(x, y) → (y, -x)

90° CLockwise

CO-Y
x & y switch places
y becomes its opposite
-y → +y
+y → -y

(x, y) → (-y, x)

90° COunter-clockwise

Algebraic representation Clockwise

15

x & y stay in their places
both x & y become their opposite
-x → +x
+x → -x
-y → +y
+y → -y
(x, y) → (-x, -y)

180° CLockwise

x & y stay in their places
both x & y become their opposite
-x → +x
+x → -x
-y → +y
+y → -y
(x, y) → (-x, -y)

180° COunter-clockwise

Algebraic representation Clockwise

16

Switch the directions to 90° Counter-clockwise and use the CL-X rule
x & y switch places
x becomes its opposite

-x → +x
+x → -x
(x, y) → (y, -x)

270° CLockwise

Switch the directions to 90° Clockwise and use the CO-Y rule
x & y switch places
y becomes its opposite
-y → +y
+y → -y

(x, y) → (-y, x)
