Find an Exact Rotation of the Original Shape

The following activity is a practice exercise to help you measure your success under timed conditions.

If you are unsure of an answer, move on to the next question.

You should come back to questions you found difficult at the end if you have time.

Reflection is what you would see if you placed a mirror in front of a shape.

It is a mirror-image.

Rotation occurs when you turn a shape.

The shape stays at a fixed middle-point and turns either clockwise or anti-clockwise.

a)         b)         c)         d) 

The answer is d!

Now it's time to begin this practice exercise.

Good luck!
