What does it mean to rotate an object to 90 degrees?
Colloquially, it means to give it a one quarter turn. Imagine taking a dial that currently points upwards, and rotating it to point rightward. That is a 90° rotation. Similarly, the amount by which the minute hand in an analog clock moves in fifteen minutes should be 90°. If you are looking to do this mathematically, the easiest way is to use a rotation matrix. In this case, you are rotating around the point 0, 0.
Why is a revolution 360 degrees?
There are 360 degrees in a circle and a revolution is when something turns in a circle. There are aslo 360 degrees around a point.
What time is 180 degrees?
There are different possible answers. 180 degrees in he earth's orbit represents 6 months. 180 degrees in the moon's orbit represents around 14 days. 180 degrees in the earth's rotation, or around the earth's body represents 12 hours.
How many degrees is it when you turn completely around once?
To turn a full circle you would turn 360 degrees.
How many degrees will the skater turn if he skates once around regular hexagon?
He will turn 720 degrees because the angle sum of a hexagon is 720 degrees
Is a triangle with 60 degrees all around equilateral?
Yes
How many digrees is a triangle all the way around?
In a triangle, the total sum of degrees will always be 180o.
Why triangle tile perfectly?
The three angle of any triangle sum to 180 degrees so the angles of two triangles sum to 360 degrees - which is the angular measure around a point.
What three-dimensional shape is formed by rotating a rectangle 360 degrees around one of its sides?
The result is a cylinder
How do four seasons occur?
by the earth rotating around the sun while the moon is rotating around the earth.
Is the sun constantly rotating and revolving around the earth?
no, it's the Earth that is constantly rotating around the Sun
What does a triangle turned 180 degrees look like?
A triangle. The effect of turning will depend on whether the plane containing the triangle is rotated - that is, the triangle is rotated around an axis perpendicular to its plane. In that case, it will appear upside down. Alternatively, it can be rotated about an axis in the plane of the triangle. In this case it will appear flipped.
Why it seem to see the sun rotating around the Earth?
because earth is rotating around itself while revolving around the sun
What revolves around the sun while rotating its side?
Earth revolves around the sun while rotating on its sides
Is it possible to heve three suns in one universe?
No. If you have three suns rotating around each other, that would mean that an object would have to be rotating around two other objects that are rotating around the other two objects, which is rotating around the two original objects. It just can't work
Does the Earths tip always point in the same direction?
No it does not. Since the Earth is constantly spinning, and also rotating around the sun, the earth will point in all 360 degrees.
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.
