4.3 Exploration, example #2

Directions

For #s 1 - 3, do the following:
  1. Use the polygon tool to trace the pre-image and place a point at the origin.
  2. Use the rotation tool to rotate the pre-image until the image counter-clockwise so it lines up on the given image.
  3. Write down the angle of rotation
  4. State a coordinate rule for the rotation. (Making a table of the pre-image and image coordinates will help greatly in finding the pattern for the transformation)

Example #2

Angle of rotation

The angle of rotation about the origin (in degrees) is:
