270 DEGREE ROTATION ON 2D SHAPES

Rotate each shape as described.

Problem 1 :

The shape above has the following coordinates:

A (-2, 0), B (-7, 3) and C(-9, 7)

Rotate the shape 270° counter-clockwise.

Solution:

Here, triangle is rotated 270° counterclockwise. So, the rule that we have to apply here is

(x, y) ---> (y, -x)

A(-2, 0) = A'(0, 2)

B(-7, 3) = B'(3, 7)

C(-9, 7) = C'(7, 9)

Vertices of the rotated figure are

A'(0, 2), B'(3, 7) and C'(7, 9)

A(4, 0), B(10, -1), C(8, -6) and D(3, -9)

Rotate the shape 270° counter-clockwise.

Solution:

Here, triangle is rotated 270° counterclockwise. So, the rule that we have to apply here is

(x, y) ---> (y, -x)

A(4, 0) = A'(0, -4)

B(10, -1) = B'(-1, -10)

C(8, -6) = C'(-6, -8)

B(-9, -3) = B'(-3, 9)

C(-8, -10) = C'(-10, 8)

D(-2, -6) = D'(-6, 2)

Vertices of the rotated figure are

A'(0, 0), B'(-3, 9), C'(-10, 8) and D'(-6, 2)
