Rotation:
Circular movement of an abject
around a centre.
Learning objective
Rotate shapes about a given point
Identify object, image, centre of
rotation, direction and describe the
rotation.
What 3 pieces of information do
you need to be able to rotate a
shape?
1) the direction of the rotation
(clockwise or anti-clockwise)
2) the angle (90, 180, 270)
3) the centre of rotation (always
given as a co-ordinate)

Rotations
A rotation turns a shape about a fixed point.
This point is called the centre of rotation.
You need three things to describe a rotation
1) the direction of the rotation (clockwise
or anti-clockwise)
2) the angle (90, 180, 270)
3) the centre of rotation (always given as
a co-ordinate)
