Rotations

Question 9 • Q5 Geometry New 2022

Which of the following is not a needed piece of information when performing a rotation?

Answer
A
direction
B
center
C
angle
D
orientation

Explanation

To specify a rotation, you need its center, the angle of rotation, and the direction (clockwise or counterclockwise). Orientation is not a separate piece of information needed to perform the rotation; a rotation preserves a figure’s orientation. Therefore, “orientation” is the correct choice.
