What is a rotation transformation?; A rotation transformation is one in which the points on an object are rotated about a specified location.
The vertices of the triangle ΔABC are; A(-4, -3), B(0, -2), and C(2, -2)
The transformation applied to the triangle; A 90° clockwise rotation about point C
The coordinates of a point (x, y) following a rotation of 90° clockwise about the origin is; (y, -x)
Translating the point C in the triangle to the origin, we get;
C(2 - 2, -2 + 2) = A'(0, 0), therefore, the translation to the origin is a two unit translation to the left and 2 units translation upwards
Applying the translation to the vertice A and B, we get;
A(-4 - 2, -3 + 2) = A'(-6, -1)
B(0 - 2, -2 + 2) = B'(-2, 0)
The image following the rotation about point C' are therefore;
C''(0, 0), B''(0, 2), A''(-1, 6)
Translating the image to the initial position, we get;
C''(0 + 2, 0 - 2) ⇒ C'''(2, -2)
B''(0 + 2, 2 - 2) ⇒ B'''(2, 0)
A''(-1 + 2, 6 - 2) ⇒ A'''(1, 4)
