Here you will learn about rotations, including how to rotate a shape around a fixed point, and how to describe clockwise rotations and counterclockwise rotations.
Rotations in math refer to rotating a figure or point. Interactive demonstration and visuals explaining how to rotate by 90, 180, 270 and 360.
Rotations in the coordinate plane are counterclockwise. When working with rotations, you should be able to recognize angles of certain sizes. Popular angles include 30º (one third of a right angle), 45º (half.
Rotations are described by the degrees of turn and center of rotation. When you rotate figures on the coordinate plane, the origin is often used as the center of rotation.
