Understanding Rotational Transformations

The video tutorial explains rotational transformations, focusing on 270-degree rotations around the origin. It covers the concept of positive angles, typically measured counterclockwise, and uses trigonometry principles. The tutorial also includes a visualization of a 180-degree rotation and a detailed step-by-step guide to performing a 270-degree rotation.

What is the main focus of a rotational transformation in this context?

• Scaling the polygon

• Rotating the polygon around the origin

• Translating the polygon

• Reflecting the polygon
