Question

a certain mapping in the xy - plane has the following properties: . for the point a, the image a is at the same point as a. . a point p that is not at a maps to a point p clockwise along the circumference of a circle centered at a and with a radius of ap. . m∠pap = θ. which transformation does the mapping define? choose 1 answer: a a translation b a reflection c a rotation

Explanation:

Translation moves points without rotation. Reflection flips points over a line. Here, points (except one fixed - point A) move clock - wise along a circular path centered at A by an angle $\theta$, which is the definition of a rotation.

Answer:

C. A rotation
