Rotate the triangle 90 degrees counterclockwise using the slider. [br]-- What are the original ordered pairs of the triangle? [br]-- What are the new ordered pairs of the rotated triangle? [br]-- What patterns do you notice? [br]-- Write a rule to describe this rotation.
Rotate the triangle 180 degrees counterclockwise using the slider. [br]-- What are the original ordered pairs of the triangle? [br]-- What are the new ordered pairs of the rotated triangle? [br]-- What patterns do you notice? [br]-- Write a rule to describe this rotation.
