Do you think that a 270° clockwise rotation is the same as a 90° counterclockwise rotation? Explain why or why not.

Answer:

sorry if im late but this is the answer:

Explanation:

Yes, I think they are the same. One revolution is 360 degrees. A 180-degree clockwise rotation is the same as a 180-degree counterclockwise rotation. The sum of the measures is 360. So, moving in a clockwise direction for 270 degrees would end at the same place as moving 90 degrees in a counterclockwise direction.

Answer: This would equal the same distance

Explanation: Think of a clock if it rotates 90 degrees counter clockwise it would stop at the number 9. If it rotates 90 clockwise it would stop at 3, then rotate that hand clockwise by 90 degrees one more time it will stop at 6, then 9 at 270 degrees.
