  • A rotation is a transformation that "turns" an object around a fixed point, called the center of rotation.  It is a rigid transformation as shape and size are maintained.

    In a rotation an object is turned around a centre point. The distance from the centre to any point on the shape/object stays the same. Remember to always state the angle and direction of the rotation.

    In the next video you will be taken through an example of how to perform a rotation on an axis. Make sure to have a ruler and pencil ready.
