Goals • Identify rotations in the plane. • Apply rotation formulas to figures on the coordinate plane.
4-3 Rotation • A transformation in which a figure is turned about a fixed point, called the center of rotation. Center of Rotation
4-3 Rotation • Rays drawn from the center of rotation to a point and its image form an angle called the angle of rotation. G 90 Center of Rotation G’
A Rotation is an Isometry • Segment lengths do not change. • Angle measures do not change. • Parallel lines remain parallel.
Rotations on the Coordinate Plane • Know the formulas for: • 90 rotations • 180 rotations • 270 rotations • clockwise & counter-clockwise Unless told otherwise, the center of rotation is the origin (0, 0).
90 clockwise rotation Formula (x, y) (y, x) A(-2, 4) A’(4, 2)
Rotate (-3, -2) 90 CW Formula (x, y) (y, x) A’(-2, 3) (-3, -2)
90 counter-clockwise rotation Formula (x, y) (y, x) A’(2, 4) A(4, -2)
Rotate (-5, 3) 90 counter-clockwise Formula (x, y) (y, x) (-5, 3) (-3, -5)
180 clockwise rotation Formula (x, y) (x, y) A’(4, 2) A(-4, -2)
Rotate (3, -4) 180CW Formula (x, y) (x, y) (-3, 4) (3, -4)
Rotation Example B(-2, 4) Draw a coordinate grid and graph: A(-3, 0) B(-2, 4) C(1, -1) Draw ABC A(-3, 0) C(1, -1)
Rotation Example B(-2, 4) Rotate ABC 90 clockwise. Formula (x, y) (y, x) A(-3, 0) C(1, -1)
Rotate ABC 90 clockwise. B(-2, 4) (x, y) (y, x) A(-3, 0) A’(0, 3) B(-2, 4) B’(4, 2) C(1, -1) C’(-1, -1) A’ B’ A(-3, 0) C’ C(1, -1)
Rotate ABC 90 clockwise. B(-2, 4) Check by rotating ABC 90. A’ B’ A(-3, 0) C’ C(1, -1)
Rotation Formulas • 90 CW (x, y) (y, x) • 90 CCW (x, y) (y, x) • 180 CW (x, y) (x, y) • 270 CCW (x, y) (y, x)
Rotational Symmetry • A figure can be mapped onto itself by a rotation of 180 or less. 45 90 The square has rotational symmetry of 90.
Does this figure have rotational symmetry? The hexagon has rotational symmetry of 60.
Does this figure have rotational symmetry? Yes, of 180.
Does this figure have rotational symmetry? 90 180 270 360 No, it required a full 360 to map onto itself.
Summary • A rotation is a transformation where the preimage is rotated about the center of rotation. • Rotations are Isometries. • A figure has rotational symmetry if it maps onto itself at an angle of rotation of 180 or less.
