Center of Rotation<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: This is the point around which the figure rotates.

However, it can be anywhere within or outside the figure being rotated.<\/span><\/p><p><b>2. Angle of Rotation<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: The angle of rotation is the measure of the degree through which a figure is rotated. This angle is typically measured in degrees (\u00b0) or radians (rad). A full rotation corresponds to 360\u00b0, while a half rotation is 180\u00b0.<\/span><\/p><p><b>3.

Rotational Symmetry<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Some shapes, such as circles, squares, and equilateral triangles, exhibit rotational symmetry. This means that the shape looks identical after being rotated by a certain angle, usually less than 360\u00b0. For example, a square has four-fold rotational symmetry, as it looks the same after a 90\u00b0 rotation.<\/span><\/p><p><strong>Recommended Reading<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/mp.moonpreneur.com\/math-corner\/mobile-math-game\/\"><strong>: <\/strong>\u00a0How to Create a Mobile Math Game<\/a><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"has_eae_slider elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-22bd690 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"22bd690\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-row\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"has_eae_slider elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-b9ced3d\" data-id=\"b9ced3d\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c789612 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"c789612\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\">\n\t\t\t\t<h4><b>Rotation in Coordinate Geometry<\/b><\/h4>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"has_eae_slider elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-cb58551 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"cb58551\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-row\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"has_eae_slider elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-4351782\" data-id=\"4351782\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-54fb6d7 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"54fb6d7\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-image\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"531\" height=\"403\" src=\"https:\/\/mp.moonpreneur.com\/math-corner\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/center-of-rotation.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-34520\" alt=\"Center Of Rotation\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"has_eae_slider elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-c973ff6\" data-id=\"c973ff6\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-dac49da elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"dac49da\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\">\n\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In coordinate geometry, a rotation can be represented algebraically.
