TRANSFORMATIONS: ROTATION
MGSE9-12.G.CO.2 Represent transformations in the plane using, e.g., transparencies and geometry software; describe transformations as functions that
take points in the plane as inputs and give other points as outputs. Compare transformations that preserve distance and angle to those that do not.
