A rotation is a transformations when a figure is turned around a point called the point of rotation. The image has the same lengths and angle measures, and differs only in position. Rotations that are counterclockwise are rotations of positive angles. All rotations are assumed to be about the origin.
R90 deg (x, y) = (-y, x)
R180 deg (x, y) = (-x, -y)
R270 deg (x, y) = (y, -x)
R360 deg (x, y) = (x, y)

How do you rotate a figure 90 degrees counterclockwise?
The formula is (x,y) -> (y,-x). Verbal : switch the coordinates ; then change the sign of the new x coordinate. Example : (2,1) -> (1,-2)
How do you rotate a figure 180 degrees clockwise?
multiply the coordinates by -1.
How do you reflect a figure across the y axis?
Replace each point with coordinates (x, y) by (-x, y).
How do you rotate a figure 90 degrees counter clockwise about the origin?
You have to switch the x and y coordinates and multiply your new x coordinate by -1. You can also dram the point and rotate your paper physically by 90 degrees. Example: Your Coordinates: (3,8) New Coordinates: (-8,3) (3,8) ---> (8,3) ---> (-8,3) Another Ex: (-7,-1) --> (-1,-7) --> (1,-7)
How do you find the coordinates of the vertices of each figure after the given transformation?
translation 2 units up g(1,-2), l(3,3), z(5,0), s(3,-3)
Which transformation will be equivalent to rotating a figure 180 degrees counterclockwise?
S gd dfnfhmmmmm
How does reflecting or rotating a figure change the interior angles of the figure?
The angles have the same measure. In the reflection the order of the angles are changed from clockwise to counterclockwise.
What happens to the x and y coordinates when a figure is translated up?
Translated means "slide." The y coordinates are increased

How does translating a figure vertically affect the coordinates of its vertices?
how does translation a figure vertically affect the coordinates of its vertices
How do you rotate a figure 90 degrees anticlockwise?
Clockwise is rotating something to the right, anticlockwise is moving something to the left. It is basically the same thing as counterclockwise. The prefix ANTI- means "not." Examples: Antisocial, antichrist, antimatter, and so on.
How do you rotate a figure 180 degrees clockwise about origin?
To rotate a figure 180 degrees clockwise about the origin you need to take all of the coordinates of the figure and change the sign of the x-coordinates to the opposite sign(positive to negative or negative to positive). You then do the same with the y-coordinates and plot the resulting coordinates to get your rotated figure.
How do you rotate a figure 270 degrees?
Rotating a figure 270 degrees is like rotating the figure to the left 90 degrees. I am not sure what formula or rule you use. *Joe Jonas Rocks*
A movement of a figure to a new position by rotating the figure around a point?
ordered pair
Which solid figure is formed by rotating a circle in space?
a sphere
When reflecting a figure in the x-axis will you change all of the figures X coordinates or the y coordinates?
The y-coordinates.The y-coordinates.The y-coordinates.The y-coordinates.
Rotate do you rotate a figure 270 degrees counterclockwise?
270 degrees is 3/4 of the way around the circle. Ir is the same as rotating it 90 degrees (1/4) of the way clockwise. Turn it so anything that was pointing straight up would be pointing to the right.
