Rotations
- Rotation: a type of congruence transformation in which an image moves in a circular motion to a new position
- Center of rotation: the fixed point in which the image is rotating around
- Methods by which a rotation can be performed:
- A composite of two successive reflections over two intersecting lines
- The angle of rotation: the angle formed by the intersecting lines
- Rotation postulate: in a given rotation, the angle of rotation is twice the measure of the angle formed by the intersecting lines of reflection
