Question

which figure is a rotation of figure a? figure b figure c figure d

Explanation:

A rotation of a figure preserves its shape and size, and changes its orientation by rotating around a point. By visually comparing Figure A with Figures B, C, D:

• Figure B: Appears to be a translation (slide) or reflection, not a rotation (orientation doesn't match rotation of A).
• Figure C: When we imagine rotating Figure A around a point (e.g., the top vertex or a center), Figure C's orientation and shape match a rotated version of A. The sides and angles align with a rotation (e.g., 180° or another angle) of A.
• Figure D: Doesn't match the rotated orientation of A (shape's angle and side alignment differ from a rotation of A).

Answer:

Figure C
