Exploring the Rotation of Geometric Figures

The video tutorial covers the concept of rotation as a geometric transformation. It explains how rotation can occur at any angle around a central point, either clockwise or counterclockwise. The tutorial focuses on rotations of 90 degrees clockwise, 90 degrees counterclockwise, and 180 degrees around the origin. It provides rules for each type of rotation, demonstrating how coordinates change during these transformations. Practical examples are given to illustrate these concepts, showing how points on a plane are affected by different rotations.

What are the two directions in which rotation can occur?

• Clockwise and counterclockwise

• Forward and backward

• Upward and downward

• Left and right
