CHAPTER 9.3 AND 9.4 Rotations and Compositions of Transformations

ROTATIONS  A rotation is a turn that moves every point of an image through a specified angle and direction about a fixed point.

CONCEPT

ROTATE 90°  Graph the point A (-2, 4)  Graph the image of A’ under a rotation of 90° counterclockwise about the origin

ROTATE 180°  Graph the point B (2, -5)  Graph the image of B’ under a rotation of 180° counterclockwise about the origin

ROTATE 270°  Graph the point C (-4, -6)  Graph the image of C’ under a rotation of 270° counterclockwise about the origin

Rotations in the Coordinate Plane Triangle DEF has vertices D(–2, –1), E(–1, 1), and F(1, – 1). Graph Δ DEF and its image after a rotation of 90° counterclockwise about the origin.

Rotations in the Coordinate Plane Line segment XY has vertices X(0, 4) and Y(5, 1). Graph XY and its image after a rotation of 270° counterclockwise about the origin.

COMPOSITION OF TRANSFORMATIONS  When a transformation is applied to a figure and then another transformation is applied to its image, the result is called a composition of transformations.
