Geometry Rotations
Goals • Identify rotations in the plane. • Apply rotation formulas to figures on the coordinate plane.
Rotation • A transformation in which a figure is turned about a fixed point, called the center of rotation. Center of Rotation
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 are preserved. • Angle measures are preserved. • Parallel lines remain parallel. • Orientation is unchanged.
Rotations on the Coordinate Plane Know the formulas for: • 90 rotations • 180 rotations • clockwise & counter-clockwise Unless told otherwise, the center of rotation is the origin (0, 0).

Rotation Formulas • 90 CW (x, y) (y, x) • 90 CCW (x, y) (y, x) • 180 (x, y) (x, y) • Rotating through an angle other than 90 or 180 requires much more complicated math.
Compound Reflections • If lines k and m intersect at point P, then a reflection in k followed by a reflection in m is the same as a rotation about point P.
Compound Reflections • If lines k and m intersect at point P, then a reflection in k followed by a reflection in m is the same as a rotation about point P. k m P
Compound Reflections • Furthermore, the amount of the rotation is twice the measure of the angle between lines k and m. k m 45 90 P
