    • Rotate 90 degrees clockwise around .

  1. What do you notice?

Problem 2

Use the diagram to find the measure of each angle.

Line EC is intersected at point B by line AD. Angle CBD is 45 degrees.

Problem 3

Points and are plotted on a line.

  1. Find a point so that a 180-degree rotation with center sends to and to .

    A line that slants upward and to the right with two plots labeled P and Q pointed on it. Point P is below point Q.
  2. Is there more than one point that works for part a?

Problem 4 From Unit 1 Lesson 7

In the picture triangle is an image of triangle after a rotation. The center of rotation is .

Triangle A prime, B prime, C prime is an image of triangle A, B, C after rotation around another point, D. Side B, C has length 4. Angle B prime has measure 52 degrees. Angle C prime has measure 50 degrees.
  1. What is the length of side ? Explain how you know.

  2. What is the measure of angle ? Explain how you know.

  3. What is the measure of angle ? Explain how you know.

Problem 5 From Unit 1 Lesson 6
