The best way is this:

Draw a line from the point closest to the origin to the actual origin. Rotate the line however many degrees you are told, whichever way you are told. After you have the point closest to the origin rotated, you can either rotate the other points the same way or just draw them in based on where the other point lies.

Another way, sort of the cheater way, is to just take a piece of tracing paper and trace the figure onto it. Hold it down by pressing your pencil on the tracing paper where the origin is, and rotating it however many degrees, whichever way you are told.

This is for ROTATE. To reflect just use the opposite signs on the coordinates.
