Question

which of the pictures below show a rotation (turn) of the figure about a point?
w.
x.
y.
z.
a. x
b. w
c. y
d. z

Explanation:

Step1: Recall rotation concept

Rotation is turning a figure around a fixed - point. The shape and size of the figure remain the same, only its orientation changes.

Step2: Analyze option W

In W, the figure has changed its orientation around the point, which is a rotation.

Step3: Analyze option X

In X, the figure has not changed its orientation; it is just translated (moved) to a new position, not rotated.

Step4: Analyze option Y

In Y, the figure has not changed its orientation; it is just translated (moved) to a new position, not rotated.

Step5: Analyze option Z

In Z, the figure has been reflected (flipped) across a line passing through the point, not rotated.

Answer:

B. W
