image of a star - like quilt block with brown and blue sections
a. square
b. rectangle
c. triangle
d. parallelogram

Explanation:

To determine the polygon rotated to create the brown quilt block pattern, we analyze the shape of the brown sections. Each brown part has three sides, characteristic of a triangle. Rotating a triangle around a central point can form the star - like quilt block pattern seen. A square (A) has four sides, a rectangle (B) has four sides with opposite sides equal, and a parallelogram (D) has opposite sides parallel, none of which match the shape of the brown sections. So the polygon being rotated is a triangle.

Answer:

C. Triangle
