Rotating Figures on the Coordinate Plane

What is a rotation in the context of coordinate geometry?

• A shift along the x or y-axis

• A reflection across an axis

• A turn about a fixed point

• An enlargement or reduction

What is the result of rotating a point 90 degrees clockwise around the origin?

• The x and y coordinates swap and the x value changes sign

• The x and y coordinates swap and the y value changes sign

• The x and y coordinates swap without any change in sign

• The x and y coordinates remain the same but their signs change

How does a 180 degrees rotation affect the signs of a point's coordinates?

• Only the y-coordinate sign changes

• Both the x and y-coordinate signs change

• Only the x-coordinate sign changes
