Step-by-step explanation: A rotation is when we turn a figure to a new position.

In the image provided, we can see that the shaded figure has been turned one quarter turn or 1/4. A quarter turn is a 90 degree rotation.

If we want to determine the direction of the rotation, look to see where the top of the figure has been turned. We can see that the top of the shaded figure has been turned toward the left or in the opposite direction of the hands of a clock. This means that our figure has been turned in a counterclockwise direction.

Therefore, the rotation shown here is 90° in a counterclockwise direction.
