(usually the origin)
a flip over a line of

and/or vertically
a change in

a change in shape
can be a change in
location
A rotation is a transformation in geometry. It is defined as a circular turn around a fixed point (often the origin). A flip over a line of symmetry is a reflection. A slide horizontally and/or vertically is a translation. Rotation can cause a change in orientation. It does not change the size or shape of the figure. Also, while rotation can change the location of points (as they move around the center of rotation), the most fundamental and defining characteristic among the options is the circular - turn - around - a - fixed - point description.
