which of the following are necessary to describe a rotation of figure on a coordinate plane? Chose all that apply.
To describe a rotation of a figure on a coordinate plane, the following are necessary:
1. Center of Rotation: The point around which the figure rotates. The center of rotation can be any point on the coordinate plane.
2. Angle of Rotation: The magnitude of the angle by which the figure rotates. It is measured in degrees and can be positive (counterclockwise) or negative (clockwise). The angle of rotation determines the direction and extent of the rotation.
3. Direction of Rotation: The direction in which the figure rotates, either clockwise or counterclockwise. The direction is determined by the sign of the angle of rotation.
It is important to note that the figure itself (its shape and size) does not change during a rotation, only its position on the coordinate plane changes.
