Understanding Rotations in Mathematics
Rotations involve turning a shape around a fixed point called the center of rotation. The amount of turn is specified by the angle of rotation. The direction can be clockwise or counterclockwise.
Key Concepts:
- Center of Rotation: The point around which a shape is rotated.
- Angle of Rotation: The degree measure of rotation.
- Direction: Can be either clockwise or counterclockwise.
